Well things are progressing nicely.
I have my CUC coming in from reeftopia tomorrow and also some dragon breath algae.
In addition I just picked up 3 fish from diver's den to go in my QT :). These will be the first 3 fish in my 180g since the rebuild. To say I am excited is an understatement

Those dolly wheels are pretty big and strong, could roll carpet np and if youre worried about marks in the carpet put some wood down for when storing it ;).
lol no the wc system works fine thank you :P. I will have my 30g brute container and 60g white container up for sale eventually.

Just ran some tests on the tank to see how it is coming along with the cycle.

looking for corraline algae scrapings to seed my dry rock with or a few pieces of live rock that have not been exposed to any fish/ich to seed the tank.
located in 07006, thanks.
Yeah since I'm stuck home caring for my mom the guy was nice enough to drop them off!!! It is a sweet setup, I just need to grab a funnel so I can pour the salt in :x.
I was going to work on the tank today to figure out mounting solution, but I'm freaking exhausted.
Thank you again, with me taking care of my mom the guy was nice enough to deliver it to me today!
Now all that is left is to figure out how to mount my reactors and I'm set.
I think I might start with all my fish then slowly build into corals :x. I was looking at some tank threads and mmm
I HATE Home Depot!
I LOVE Lowes!
I was happy it only took one trip to Lowes to get the manifold built, I was at home depot today and finished off my drain for my water changes because I needed a 90 pvc to threaded, but it worked.
Now I am lucky because home depot is a 3 minute drive from me...
Purchased a water mixing station off reefcentral, thanks Edwardw771 for linking me it!
I had to modify it a bit as the original person had 2 x 2x4s on his wall that acted as a rest. I added the 2 rear legs, leveled it and then also mounted it to the concrete wall.
I love that this will save...
Sounds like it will work splendid.
What I did was I drew everything out on paper and figured out all the sizing. I then wrote down each piece I needed and went to lowes, I spent an hour at lowes checking each item off my list. I got home and had everything I needed to get my manifold going.
Silly Sobo Silly
So the white tube you see coming straight up to the T is connected to my pump sitting in my sump.
The dirty brown tubing <not yellow, dont be ignant> is the return to my 2 returns for my display.
To the left of the T is a ball valve which is the main control valve for my...
first remove that intake piece you have on the pump, you're limiting the amount of water it can take in!
second if you copy my manifold design, I have 1 single return that splits to go to the 2 overflows and the manifold is controlled independently.
As you can see the right side tubing goes...
