My New 120 Gallon Thread

Wow, looks great. Look forward to following this.

 

Well, the cycle is progressing. Ammonia is coming down, Nitrite is going up. And, as an added bonus, it no longer smells like low tide in my fish room - which is nice.

 

Did u have to cure your rock at all?

 

No, it was pretty clean when I got it. I did rinse it in clean water before putting it in the tank...but since I needed to cycle the tank anyway...figured I would let it cure and cycle at the same time. I did that with my last tank as well, and it worked out nicely for me.

 

Nice work APC...will be following your build closely!

 

I really like the tank setup.

 

Tanks looks great! Got some new pics?

 

I'll try to post some this weekend. I am taking it really slow with this tank. I have added a clean up crew, 6 itty bitty little Green Chromis, 1 royal Gramma, and a small Hippo Tang. I also put a cutting from my cabage coral from my 65 in there and about a dozen green button polyps from my 65. So not a lot to see yet. I have been dosing with Kent Tech A and B and keeping my CA and Alk up, so the rock is really getting coated with Coraline now, and I am getting some cool stuff out of the rock (feather dusters, etc).

Tank is doing great though, and all parameters are within check. In the next 2-3 weeks I will be adding more corals and fish so the pictures will have more to show then.

I am normally not a patient person....so it is taking a lot of restraint to take this tank slow. But I want to do it right. It also helps that for whatever reason I have been majorly busy with work this quarter and on the road traveling pretty much non stop. So that really just leaves time for maintenance.

 

welcome to the 100+ club keep the pics coming
