Quick update painted the top and bottom plywood white still need to grab some more mdo from the lumber yard to finish off the enclosure of the stand.
Went to homedepot and remembered that they sell window film, so i bought some 5% film and used that to cover the back.
Last night I picked up a CSB from @boun11 i was stoked to add it to the tank since water peramiters were reading great.
This morning i woke up and saw the nem looked really happy after a day of being in the tank. Already looking all bubbly :)
Its been about two months now since its been up and running, haven’t done much but just let it ride out and build all the bacteria it needs. Added some marco rock and a snail to keep things clean.
I knew i wanted to add a nem to this tank so I had to improvise and cut out some of that foam...
