My renewed tank
Just to show what I've been up to 'cause I'm proud of myself for finally getting up off my butt....

Rock is still cooking, gotta plumb the lines to the sump which I would really like to enlarge (maybe another project) cleaning up a uv which has so much calcium inside the outer tubing I'm not sure if it can be saved,ugh!! Figure I'll soak it in straight vinegar for a while and see if it will dissolve....

Thanks everyone, and happy Easter to you...I find that the more I check things out the more I need to do before getting the tank back to running...ie the sump, eductor, need to get some screening for the overflow (they probably make it in plastic somewhere), reading lots of posts and picking up great ideas, one step forward-two back...eventually will get there...
