20 Gallon Long Zeovit

[plyle02]

This tank is young, not intended to be my main tank, but after purchasing my 1st home, and holding all inhabitants from my previous Solana tank, I decided to use the holding tank as a new tank, maybe set the Solana up again down the road, but I love the footprint of this tank Eventually, I will tie into this system the Solana, but right now, here is what my new setup looks like...

The tank has been going for about 6 weeks, I used 100% seeded water and live rock. The sandbed is dead, as per zeo recommendations with Caribsea Seafloor grade. I had everything I needed to run zeovit, including a small reactor, so instead of selling for pennies on the dollar, or throwing everything away, I decided to employ all of the additives, zeolites, c-source, bacteria source, etc...

Sump located in the closet next to the tank, I like that everything is hidden in the closet, in terms of filtration.

Nice setup!

Very nice setup! Multiple corals you have are my personal favorites. Two tanks are always better than one IMO lol

Thanks to all above for the generous comments, it's greatly appreciated...

This tank is still in it's beginning phases, so much more to look after... Will update as things progress...

I see in your picture that you have your Zeovit reactor hanging on the side of your sump. How do you have the reactor intake plumbed? I am looking at going the Zeovit route but space is limited in my sump and that looks like a good option for me.
