45G Cube Build - SPS & LPS

You saved a pretty good chunk of change then. Congrats

 

very nice purchase, jealous! I'm going to get one soon I hope.

 

Following this build. It looks awesome.. I always wanted a cube.

 

Got my MP10w's today and put them in the tank. Does anyone think I should move the left pump off the back glass and onto the left side of the tank? It's flow is slightly obstructed by the rockscape.

I see a lot of people putting both vortech's on the back but I have to say there isn't a TON of flow in the front center of the tank. I realize direct flow isn't good, I want to hear everyones' thoughts.

 

Just ordered a G2 Radion and hanging kit from BRS. Will be doing the canopy build this weekend and introducing a fish.

 

And we have life...in the form of a 2" Purple Firefish. Already eating Cyclopeez, which is good. Pictures to come when I install the Radion early next week.

 

Built a canopy and finished the stand this weekend. Built canopy to accommodate 8" clearance from water surface for Radion. Light coming this week.

 

And finally with light. Radion came today. Right now I have it hung too low - about 6" off water. In the design of my canopy, I did not account for how long the various fittings were in the hanging kit. Will build a new canopy this weekend. As for now, pretty happy with the light.

 

Forgot to add the pic..

 

rockin'!
