6 months after buying the tank, i finally got everything together and set up.
it's a AGA 120 gallon 48" x 24" x 24", on a black pine stand. glass versa tops, 48" strip light, black sand for substrate, rena xp3 canister filter... yada yada yada.
i fast cycled it... meaning i had the filter running on the 60 gallon tank for a couple of months, and used 40 gallons of water from the 60. seems to have worked, i tested the water after 4 days and nitrates are 10ppm, ammonia 0 and nitrite 0.
PICS

Great work!
6 months? I admire your patience.
I'm sure you will enjoy!

Fantastic !!! Now I want black sand too but the thoughts of taking the old sand out and washing enough to refill it shuts me right up lol. I wish I was close enough to take your Blue, he's stunning.
If you can't beat them...arrange to have them beaten!
