Mustang Boy's 5g hex Contest Tank

ok well after doing TONS of last minute modification, while putting it all together lol, i got the tank running my mj600 that i plumbed into my pipework in a closed loop kind of setup is working perfectly and is the added gph i needed to make it worthwhile and actually has tons of nice flow and is totally random. i have built the rockwork and it looks great and ive added a couple of tiny pieces of rock from my AP24 so that should kick start the cycle some. i will be working on a way to hang my NEP 20in over it. so i should be shopping for a CUC in the next few weeks.

 

 

and i will get pictures as soon as the tank clears up because there was still some sediment on my dry rock even though i rinsed it really well.
