Ok to make this more legit we will start from scratch.
Guess what the aquapod is coming down

Man I am getting as bad as Epidemic and Oyam now

. Just can't stand the curved glass, no sump, no skimmer, and a DSB and well, you all know my thoughts on that whole dealio

. So the tank that will replace it has had just about every med in it that you can think of.

Now the main objective of this tank is to do a little myth busting. The myth being that you can never ever use a tank that has been treated with meds again as a tank. Well I bet that is not the case.

I have spent the last couple of days reasearching trying to find one instance where someone used a tank that had been treated with meds and then killed everything. Found instanced where the rock and substrate had bound up copper in it and leached it back but never a tanks silicone leaching it out.

I am nukeing the tank in vinegar right now and will scrub it down real well and we shall see what happens. I will test the tank in a couple of days after I test fill it with water to see if I get any copper readings out of it.
So it is a standard AGA 20 gallon high. I have a stand and am going to have the tank drilled so there can be a sump and I still am undecided on what I am going to do for a skimmer. Probally have Bob whip up some really cool contraption.

Tank will be lit with a orbit 150w hqi with a 14k phoenix bulb. Sump will be a old five gallon tank that I have in the garage and am going to set up a simple auto topoff with a kent
float valve to replace evap water with kalk.
