Fritz0id3937 April 10, 2014 April 10, 2014 Hi, my name is Brad and I recently joined wamas. I am currently setting up 65 gallon tank for a mixed reef with a 3 section 20 gallon long sump. I have alot to learn and a lot of questions. I've have just finished ordering most of the basics. I am in the middle of drilling my last hole for a herbie overflow, and I hope to start cycling next week. I've ordered 50lbs of dry rock from reef cleaners and 60lbs of live sand, and bacteria starter. I would like to add some live rock to that to help the cycle. I'd welcome any advice for a smooth start and hope to meet people nearby and maybe see their tanks.

Jim Mc April 10, 2014 April 10, 2014 Welcome to WAMAS. I just picked up a Labouti Wrasse so I can show you the booty but not the bounty does that count? Done hijacking your thread now.
Fritz0id3937 April 10, 2014 Author April 10, 2014 I finished drilling the last hole and glued in the overflow box. What is the easiest way to post pics in a thread? Or should I just start a new thread in the tank build section?

Or should I just start a new thread in the tank build section? start a new thread and then use a site such as photobucket and copy the IMG code from each photo and paste it
