So I set up my tank today.
The stand:

The syphon was a big POS so I ended up having to get creative.

Added the salt and the heater:

Tons of salt sitting in the bottom of the tank still. I couldnt believe how much salt I had to use. I added 9.5 gallons of water so I added 4 3/4 cups of salt as per the label. There's still a BUNCH sitting at the bottom of the tank after I stirred it around a whole bunch. The water temp was only around 65 at the time so I'm hoping the heat will help with absorbing the salt.

I checked it at 8pm and it was a little better and I checked again just now and it's a lot better.

This is my frogspawn coral. It is my favorite coral in the tank because of the way it waves in the water. :)
