So I made a bunch of progress collecting all the goodies to get this tank started..
The other tanks arrived:
Custom Acrylic Sump 64"x28"x18"
Custom Acrylic Frag Tank 20"x20"x 10"
John from Advanced Acryhlic did a great job putting these tanks together for me.
He was a couple weeks late from his delivery date.. but thats okay. He does great
work. Sump is a center return design with skimmer area on left and refug on right.
He threw in a couple sock holders, probe holder, camera box, and lid for the frag tank.
All this stuff arrived since I last posted. I gotta get some time to hook everything up.
2x Water Blaster 10k's for returns (DT, Frag tank) and feed the skimmer
Super Reef Octopus 5000 external skimmer with Neck Cleaner
3x 55 gallon barrels for ATO and AWC + Panworld 100px for mixing
7x LED aquarium lights from Evergow with built in dimming controller.
Custom 8020 light rack to bolt the tank LED lights to & raise/lower from.
1x Monster grow light for the sump. Should make for some crazy Cheato growth.
350 lbs of reef salt.. should last about a year.
I just bought ~1000 lbs of dry rock and sand from reefrocks.net. He gave me a great
deal.. should ship freight this week. I cant wait to start aquascaping the rock.
I'm going with a 4" DSB.
I'm hoping once the tank gets going I can buy a few pieces of live rock and a couple cups of
live sand for people here to kick off my cycle
I still need to spend a couple thousands more still to kick this off. I'm going to let the credit card cool down
for a month or so before wraping the buying spree up.
Need 4x 6105 tunze and a controller
Reef angel + and all the probes.
Thanks Mike
