Lol, thanks! This is going to be a good test of my patience.this is not the hardest part of this hobby.The hardest part is waitting for your tank to cycle and looking at an empty tank for a month.Welcone to your new addiction or sould i say obsession
I'm also keeping track of my costs. I originally got a quote from a LFS in Warwick for a 60G cube with everything to get up and running minus livestock. They quoted me roughly $2800 not including tax.
I'm curious how much less it will cost me to do pretty much the same thing, I know it's not an apples to apples comparison, but I don't really think 10G difference will make much of a difference cost wise.

^+1 he just said everything I was going to answer with.

$2800??? No way. I set up a 40 breeder with 110lbs of live rock. The entire set up, including a $400 skimmer, ATO, reef keeper lite, and everything else cost me under $1500 and I have around $600 in corals right now.
Where they going to go over to your house and set everything up and get it running for you?
Ok, what do you think the best way to clean this would be? Part of me says take the plumbing apart, but the other half says leave and clean it the best you can. I would think it wouldn't hurt considering it is going to be cycled before adding any livestock.

Im gonna soak the sump plumbing in vinegar overnight, if I can't get them clean ill just replace the PVC. Should be an easy job if I need to change it.
Hopefully I can put it back without any leftover pieces lol
