Quickie update before work: Got the tank, and also got the owner's old stand for $40, so I'm very happy. ( Retail $120+ ) Spent yesterday afternoon and evening getting water in it, adding salt, arranging rock, etc. Didn't have as much heating power as I'd like ( one 200w and one 50w heater ), so temperature was very slow to rise. I had to fill gallon jugs of hot tap water and float them in the tank to help it rise faster, or else I never would have been able to move my critters over. As it is, everyone seems to be adjusting to their new home pretty well. Now I just have to get the sump/refugium return plumbed and buy some metal halides for lighting. Oh yeah, I'd still like another 200w or so of heating power.

Also added a cheesy "What am I listening to now?" widget to my blog, because it is of the upmost importance that everyone know what I'm doing right now. I just hope I remember to turn it off before I watch more colorful content. ;-)
