I can't imagine that looking very nice at all...at keast not until coraline covered the back of the wall.
I like to shoot for the middle of everything (learned the hard way) and not the upper and lower extremes (for calc, alk, mag, salinity etc.). Leaves...
That's where I keep mine. Bit you can slowly replace salt with RO/DI as suggested. I did this with success last month.
I'm going to give my moded Seaclone a couple weeks to prove it's worth. If it doesn't I think I may add an algae scrubber using the Maxijet 1200 pump...
There may not be bacteria in the water column, but I certainly would use pr-established water (if available) when starting my cycle. The chemistry is...
Wouldn't trust it. I'd buy new. Replacing your floor and live stock would be more expensive long term. Jmo
Perfect for a shark/ray tank. Rounded tanks are a must.
No, but it's gorgeous.
Thanks guys (and girls)! It's been a very fun a rewarding project so far.
No. A 30" heat sink isn't necessary. It can be shorter. 24" may be fine, but I'll defer to another poster.
Doors and trim added. A few more minor things before finished. Handles and I need to finish setting up skimmer and reactor.
I actually got the skimmer for free and had to buy the Maxijet 1200 for it. Not a bad acquisition.
Thanks! I'll begin by cutting the inner tube and cup first.
Looks like a favia of some sort.
I have the older model, I believe. I'll be cutting a bioball to attach to the impeller to break up the bubble a bit more. 1) The inner tube is 9"...
How's the Calc, Alk and mag looking?
Take a look at Reef breeders. I used to have one, the value fixture is $180 shipped.
My green emerald crab took care of mine.
Clean that sock every few days. It will clog and start overflowing.
It's the Seaclone 100 HOB skimmer. I removed that tube that curls up and over the top of the tank and attached the pump to the inlet directly instead.
