If it passes the leak test tonight, I'm pretty sure there'll be fish in it for the tour. I'm just expecting the worse. I'm not sure how the bulkheads on the back glass well hold up since there were some flakes that came off the edges when drilled. Put silicone between the gasket and the glass before installing as I was told to do. I'm not too worried about the bottom holes because they're easy to get to from inside the stand. If the leak test goes well, I'll part drain the tank and start scaping and refill and let everything run till tomorrow and then add fish in the evening.
Let the silicon totally dry Sunny. Take your time . You don't want to lose valuable fish do to impatience. I usually let it dry and cure for 2 to 3 days before adding water. I had a guy lose a whole colony of Moba fronts due to not waiting for the silicone to dry.
Bulkheads in order but had to remove the strainers from the two overflows because they can't keep up with the Mag 18. Letting it run for a few hours and draining it in the evening to add sand, rocks and wood.
