I plan on starting the tank using this method: http://zeovit.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10354

My name is Oskar, and i'm 14 (soon 15 =D) I live in Sweden
I've had a fascination for water as long as i can remember, even though i were scared of it =P.
I started reading and learning about reefkeeping for a little more than 3 years ago, and now i feel like i'm ready to take the step! (i followed the "read until you think you read enough, then read twice that amount" advice, and I'm a quick learner =P So i think im ready!)

A short walktrough of my thinking about this setup/system.

Tank: 360L 90x80x50cm with external overflow, using BeAn overflow
Light: 210w LED, 70x 3w Cree, will show the build in this thread later. (This is my own "future" product, and i'm having a PCB, controller prototype manufactured as we speak. It will have the possibilities to do "anything" storms, mooncycles, almost like GHL controlling... (More Later)
Waterflow in Tank: Probably one Vortech MP40WES to start with, then another when the reef grows...
Sump:202L 113x50x35,8cm
Skimmer: Regii Large (More Later...)
Zeoreactor: Not really sure yet, probably something own, just need a good design first...
Return Pump, split to Fragtank: Laguna 4500L/h
Fragtank: 130L 118x55x20cm
Fragtank Light: Not Really descided how many LEDs, But My own Design and Product...
Dosing Pump: Either GHL 4 w/controller OR Bubble Magus doser...
Dosing Container: Little Special, Will post pics later...

My goal with this tank is to create a reef, in which Corals, fish and lower animals will thrive! That's why i chose the Zeovit system. (Another factor that made me choose Zeo is that Andrew (V1... Rotate) uses it, love his reef!)

In this thread i will also write about the renovation of my room. Pics below.

Although i'm "only" 14/15, i'm in the progress of starting a bussiness, in which i will produce and sell products for Reef use! Thats why i will use a lot of my own products (more than listed) To test them as prototypes!

This is all for now, hope i have not forgotten anything! I sincerely hope that you will enjoy the journey! I will in detail document all progress!

This first post is Copied from my other thread at Zeovit forum...

Oskar!
 
Well, today (tonight) I've dissassembled some furniture...

My dad joked about them weighed about the same as the tank! And god he was right! =P
I might be young, but I train a LOT and should be able to lift them, haha, not a chance!!! And that were the "smallest" part! Will post pics once it's all gone ! =)
