  1. My new tank.

    This is my first blog post ever...I have really enjoyed reading and following along with all of your posts, so I figured now would be a good time to start my own...

  4. Slow progress

    I have to admit it, I'm a bit frustrated. We picked up our new tank how long ago? About two months ago, that's when. And how much is actually done as far as getting the new setup going? Not enough, that's how much. LOL It's not all Jon's fault.
