Thank you for the welcome. I will definitely be asking questions along the way. I haven't gotten to the point yet where I know exactly what questions to ask, but I am sure there will be plenty coming soon. I intend to document my progress as we get this tank to where we want it, so I will be more than happy to post pics as I get them. At the moment I only have one pic (post-Nitrogen cycle), but it is at home on my laptop so I can't post it atm.

Yes, we do have other pets. Right now we have two German Shepherds, two Bearded Dragons, a squirrel that we have been taking care of because its mother was killed before its eyes opened, and a Columbian Rainbow Boa.
