Brandon's WTH was I thinking 125 gallon madness
- Thread starter Brando457
- Start date
Picked up some new corals today from Steve and a nice colony of acan lords from a MR member.
Also picked up a new sump from a MR member. It is 60 gallons with 3 chambers, which is perfect for my skimmer | fuge | return idea.
Tomorrow I'm going to leak test the sump and then hopefully get it all plumbed in, should be a fun day regardless.
Anyone have any advice setting up a fuge as far as lights/miracle mud (whats it for?)/sand etc.

I started with mud 20lb, sand thin layer, rubble, and cheato.
Mud for me is a ? that I don't think there is an absolute answer for. It works for me.
I have 1 mangrove now for fun so came in handy.
+1 for the cheap clipon light. I like a plan grow bulb. If you go for florescent look for a bulb 6500-6700k for cheato.

I forget what this is called, but it is from 9supra and looks awesome! loving the color
Also another from 9supra I forget the name
Orange montipora from 9supra
Thanks Steve again for the awesome corals! His tank is sick and everything is growing like crazy, anyone looking for frags check his deals and steals posts definitely worth it.
Also last, but not least my new sump that I will plumb someday soon:
Again I apologize for blurry pictures hopefully one day soon I can get a good camera and take some pictures that do everything justice.

Picked up a frag rack from OGII, they had some really nice sps corals in stock!
Steve might be right, I might switch to SPS eventually.
Also picked up a nice brain coral from inquistive. Shame to see her take down her tank, she is one of the few I've encountered that actually care about their livestock.

hey Brandon...was great to meet you and your friend!..thanks for all the help today and thanks for the shoutout!!!
More corals added.
Thanks mnat for the captain america!!!!
Stopped in reef-to-reptile pretty nice store, bit on the smaller side, but nice selection.
Also stopped in to trop aquarium, this place is what I wish we had up north. HUGE Coral tanks, I didn't look at their fish selection, but it was a vast line of tanks.
I'm waiting to get my digi back from my brother, but then I'll snap some pics of all the new goodies.
Plumbing a new sump tonight thanks to Steve so this should be fun.
