Finally! The time has arrived and the 12 gallon long is beginning to build!

Quick run down of the equipment:

Mr Aqua 12 Gallon long
Vortech MP10
AC30 with InTank Media basket mod (I probably should/need to go bigger)
NeoTherm Heater 75W
AutoAqua Smart ATO
Current Marine Orbit LED's

I am very ready to just put sand and rock in and start aquascaping, but I am currently doing a leak test, and then when the ATO arrives tomorrow I want to play with that as well, so I probably wont actually start the cycle till Sunday or so, once I get everything placed, holes drilled, etc. This will run sumpless. The drilling into the cabinets will be for the ATO reservoir, and to hide the electrical. My goal for this tank is to keep it as simple as possible. We will see how it all evolves as time goes on.

STOKED

For whatever reason it wont let me post pictures so ->
