I used Krylon Fusion paint, it is safe for use in aquariums. If you do a search on here for it you will find quite a few people that use it. I know I was worried until I read as much as I could find.
Just took a quick video. I still need to remove the goldfish and I still need to do some decorating. The clay pots are just temporary until I find some driftwood, some rocks, and some fake plants.

Just received some new fish from Ken Davis at The Fish Farm. So far everyone is settling in very well, the only fish that is hiding is the Trimac.

Just received another new toy. I'll be hooking this up tomorrow in a closed loop providing water for the ugj system.
Plumbing again....I can't wait to finish everything up. I also can't wait to take the unused connectors and pipes back to Lowe's to recover a little bit of the money!
Nope, no red snooks.
Finished plumbing in the closed loop for the ugj system. The flow is perfect for what I was going for. There is absolutely no waste or food settling on the sandbed.
Here is a picture of the pumps and plumbing. The pump is louder than I was planning on but hoping it quietens down a little after it breaks in.
