Ky's Nuvo 30 Build

Thanks guys.

Still looking into options for a fuge light and how to get the Razor sag fixed.

 

Not a huge problem/emergency, I'm sure someone will chime in.

 

looking real good

 

did you glue your rock work btw?

 

Thank you.

I used epoxy on most of the rocks. The rocks on the very top I left loose just in case I needed to change some things. Everything feels pretty sturdy.

Went out of town all weekend to celebrate the kiddos bday party so I will get to work on the tank this week and post the updates.

 

Looking forward to updated pics.

 

After emailing coralvue about the light sagging issue and after receiving a very quick non-existent reply, I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I took the light off the tank, removed the rods from the light and gave the rods a very gentle bend past 90 degrees. This totally freaked me out because I didn't want to screw them up and have a funky looking light. I also moved the light housing up a tier to try and help with the disco effect.

Here is the finished product. Sag has been eliminated but we still have a disco.

 

Also added the second fish to the tank yesterday, a watchman goby. He of course decided to hide in the only spot not viewable from any side of the tank. In this horrible picture you can barely see his head sticking out to eat some food that floated by.

Here is another picture of his tank mate still doing great.

...And we have pods...

Oh and placed the order for the clean up crew from Reef Cleaners. Added pods to the order before realizing the tank was already producing them. Oh well, more biodiversity right?

 

I think it looks great! Nothing wrong with a little disco

 

Yup looking good my friend.
