Bonsai - BA's 34G Rimless Solana

Lights on!
Also my laptop USB connection started to smoke while connected to the apex, idk how the hell I'm supposed to update it now.

Need to program my radion also.

Laptop connected to Apex directly? I thought the only way to connect was through the network...the stickers on the gear say not to connect it via USB.
 
I didn't know about not connecting to USB Paul at Neptune Systems told me and I felt dumb, well apex is updated but had to use a 50ft ethernet cable to connect to my modem, that so much easier. Now to figure out how to use a wireless adapter on this controller.
 
It says not to hook the apex up to the computer via USB. You have to connect it to the router with CAT5 or CAT6 cable. Tank is looking good, I miss my Solana!
 
My apex didn't come with instructions, but I didn't read not to hook it up to a USB port. Silly me. The first laptop USB ports I will need to check. The second laptop USB ports work though. No damage to the apex though.

Hurry up and wait now. I happened to use expired live sand, crushed coral substrate, dry rock, and about 5 small pieces of live rock from a friend tank.

For those that live in Port Aransas or like their brewing house.

Because that's all I had at that time. I've looked into a bob with some float switches. I'm currently in the market for a ato box, micro reefs is supposed to be on it.
 
Ding, Ding, Ding!

Tanks is cycled according to 3 consecutive api tests.

The netgear wnce2001 just started working all of the sudden and is linked to fusion!

Now I have to name each plug and adjust what I want my wmx module to do.

Depending on how bad of a diatom bloom I have I'll be picking up some snails I lend my friend from my old build.

Skimmer will be run tonight with the quietone 4000 I picked up for 30$. I have a Tunze 6025 I'm putting in the sump for water movement.

Maybe a week or 2 then transfer all my coral over, Damn, finally.
 
One of the coolest builds I've seen! Would love to see some updated pics of the sump and other equipment now that its up and running. Awesome build thread!
 
It looks like crap since my daughters think it's funny when they see me working on it and decided to jump all over me and play. Hehe I'll be able to work on it tonight and reroute some wires and organize it a bit.
 
Does this include pictures?! I'm very interested in your overflow/sump deal as I'm planning on starting and drilling a solana. Are you still liking the bean animal, have there been any problems you've come across with it?

Anyone know what's going on with those clear looking zoas?
Got the cal alk and mg stickers in from aqua box, they make the dosing containers look really good now.
Not done yet with the left side of the stand as I'm waiting for Mike from Micro-Reefs to agree on a ato design and price.

I did not take as good care of those for you as I should. They are bleached. They should recover fairly quickly.
