Phew - Update
Alright, 4 hours later.....
Before I aquascaped, I realized I wanted to get my Tunze Stream 6080's setup. Didnt take took long to figure out how to mount these:
Ok, now, BIG MISTAKE I made here. After getting them setup I got so excited to see them run and I also wanted to see how much sand they would kick up. Well, I left them on too long and, by the time I was ready to aquascape, I had another sandstorm!!!
AGGGGGGG :mad2:
So (Ive done this before) I had to Aquqscape in the MURK. Darn!
First, anticipating the mess I was about to make, I found some tarps in my basement and did this:

That made up for my above stupidity.
Next, I carefully laid all all the LR I had - about 220 pounds here:
Pretty cool! Also, I made some holders out of PVC to sit the rock upon:
Oh, and I also used these I just got with my order from MD:
-- You know, they say they're 36" in long so I was like, cool, my tank is 30" deep. Well, I didnt account for reaching "across". its 30" straight down. But reaching around the tank I still ran out of glove room on occatins!
And So I went to work. This was near impossible, so, I just did the best I could and....hopefully...this mess will clear up soon so I can make adjustments. From what I could see

rollface: ) through the murk, it looks cool!
Yea, well, thats all I have for now. Taking a break to eat something. Hoping tomorrow its a little cleared up. Not sure if this is dumb, but I turned the Tunze's back on as well as the main filter system and skimmer. I figure, might as well make this thing fight through the murk.
IN the meantime, I have to go figure out this lighting system. Should be interesting. Will post pics on that tomorrow!
Until then. :bum:
