But i believe the new tank will spike here pretty soon. Im just hoping everything will make it. Well everyone i have talked to said i should get rid of that bristle worm. guess i probably should shoot it shouldn't i. Well, im gonna let it sit in the old tank until i can see. then i guess i will take it out then..
 
Well, I kinda dumped 10lbs of sand into it. The GF had this wonderful idea of how to put it in there slow. HA, does that look like it went in slow. It real clear today. I have to get my water tested tomorrow. Just to make sure. Guess i finally got my ref/sump.
