I don?t think you need a power head in the bucket. Air stone is enough for water circulation

Yes sir 72 bowfront and just about 80pds lil more in the bucket but I checked the water at the LFS and the ammonia was 0 and the nitrite was 2.0 and nitrate was 20

You should check your own water if you plan to keep a tank, sounds like your almost ready. Wouldn't do a water change yet till nitrites at 0. Don't add anything else in the tank cause they might not make it.

Don't need a PH for the bucket, airstones fine. You should however check the water of the bucket to make sure the clowns aren't in ammonia or nitrites, if so change the water in the bucket.

That really doesn't seem like 80lbs of Rock unless it's some dense non porous rock, or maybe I'm just misjudging it from the scale of the pics.

You got more live cured rock for me lol???

And I'll take out the powerhead in the bucket since the air stone is in there and I changed the water yesterday. I'll change it every three days
