I assume no leaks of course
Now time to move that thing into the house:hammer:
Nice job on the stain man it looks very clean
In my experience I always had some kinda small leak when using pvc couplers, but a roll of Teflon tape later and problem solved.
Looks like the tank is moving along nicely. I really like they way you mounted the returns. Out of curiosity how much gph are you going to have running through them?
Nice! Have fun on the trip. Bring back some magic fairy dust with ya, will you please...:lol:
Hey Brett,
There is always something!!! Anyway, my best advice here would be to continue as you are. Quarantine where you can... dip as much as you need and inspect everything closely as you move everything from your old system to the new. If something looks like you can't save it. Don't take the chance with it. Discard it!
Nothing will stop this great build from proceeding Bro. You have taken your time and put alot of thought into it so, trust your instincts and proceed. As I stated in the beginning of my reply... There will always be something that we are dealing with in this hobby.. the importance of dipping and quaratine is monumental now to the overal health of our systems. I remember when I first got into the hobby. I never dipped anything and never ran into any of the problems we have today with the exception of redbugs. Now, I am a believer. Good Luck Bro! We're riding with you!

hey Brett....excellent progress bro....
I am sure you will love em wavy seas they help the water circulate creating a very natural sweeping effect and corals look amazing swaying in those currents.
The stand is coming up beautiful too....are ya using some kind of water proof painting on it? If not do consider it ...as splashes can damage the whole thing.
The plumbing is looking great too ...great planning there...
Waiting to see ya tank up and running with saltwater...keep updating bro.
Have you got your rock already? Whats your plan...you gonna start with cured live rock?
Keep us posted![]()
Just a question....will dipping corals in Two Littles Fishies "REVIVE" rid them off pests aka Red bugs and the Flat worms?
anybody with experience using REVIVE?
Which is a better among the following?
1. Fresh water dip
or
2. Coral Rx dip
or
3.Revive dip
thanks
Hey buddy, Thanks for all the nice complements, I'm getting really close now. The rock is all moving over from my current system. I hope to have some big updates by the end of this weekend. The stand is a black stain with about 3 coats of Lacquer on top. I tried out the wavy seas during the water test and really love them along with the 6105 on the wave controller. Ive only ever had korralia's in my tank so all this new stuff is very exciting for me. Stay tuned.
I use Revive and it does a good job but with out QT your taking the chance of eggs being present. The best advice I can give is to QT first and not to add anybody elses rock or plugs to your display. You seem like a pretty patient and well planned guy, you should be able to avoid the mistakes most of us have made. Just be careful with everything that goes in your display. Thanks for the replys, they're always appreciated.
