Well I finally got my sump built. I had to go buy glass from a shop here in town that I finally found. It took me 3 days to get it put together lol. I had a few leaks at first and then got it sorted. If I new how to put pics on here I would let you see what it looks like. Instead of building it on the porch like sensible people I built time directly in the stand. Its pretty cool looking. I just need to get my skimmer in and get it set up then I need to get some cheato or ulva or some kind of macroalgae and it is good to go. I tested it again tonight and got to actually fill it up. If anyone has any suggestions about where to go to get the algae I need then give me a holler. I am gonna figure out how to do the pics and get them on here.

I didn't mean to post them each separate. However I was checking something out.

Anyways, looks nice, but heres how you do it. you host them on the web somewhere (photobucket.com) is a common one. You right click for the properties and take the url to the image and type in then the url and with no spaces.

If you do end up using photobucket, they have a link system where they will provide you the img link already formated for most forums that allow images to be posted. Good luck!
