Soooo... when I heard that I could acquire a 125 gallon tank, stand, sump, skimmer, powerheads, and lighting for free; I jumped on the opportunity! All I had to do was rent a trailer, break it down, and transport 2 hours to my house.

    It was July and the hottest day of the year. Luckily, I didn't have to carry stuff ...

  5. 50W LED Build cost so far

    Well I sat down with my receipts and came up with the cost so far for this build.
