Dint want my 80G left behind...so got this :)

So does this mean Dream 2.0 and Dream 1.0 are gonna both be running at your house?

Somehow I missed that part. I was assuming you were going to transfer 1.0 into 2.0.

You really stepped it up for 2.0 and got the auto doser right off the bat. You had 1.0 running for a while before you went auto dosing.

Anyway I'm excited for you. You've got to be close to putting water in 2.0.

Reef on! :)

Hey Steve :wavehand:

Thanks a lot for the words of encouragement :)
Yep 1.0 and 2.0 will be running side by side.
The doser I got now is for my older tank (1.0) I was still manual dosing for it. But as you said I'm gonna take the plunge into automated 2 part dosing for 1.0.
And it will be 3 part balling on a GHL doser for the new one. Wanna try something different with the new tank.

Your words are always great motivation to me. Yep water will be in soon and will post pics. Im doing finishing touches on my aquascape now :)

So now I'm really confused. Happens easily BTW. :confused:

Hiya Steve :)
Wow I'm really glad you were following and remember details of my humble endeavor :)
Yep you are right, I got the P3 for the first tank. But when I got into the rendering software to design the cabinetry, I got hooked on. Then I started out designing cabinets, then a tank, then a sump :D
And put forth the proposal to my wife, which she liked and aquired some "real estate" in my home. Thus began the 2.0 journey :spin2:

So I held back on setting up the P3 and the doser. The doser is not a stand alone one. It need to be hooked up to the P3. And my idea was to incorporate it into the cabinet of the new tank. And so it's still sitting in its packaging. And it's been a long journey so far me trying to get things done the way i imagined and not repeat past mistakes. Thanks a lot for following and sticking around my friend :)

:beer:
 
Update...

2 very important parameters in maintaining a SPS tank. So I went and got these two "electronic" testers. I will be cross checking accuracy with a Aquamedic refractometer and Salifert PO4 test once in a while.

And hey they come in matching colours :lol2:

So the lesson here is to learn some of that fancy computer rendering as a good way to sell your future tank ideas to the spouse.

Very clever! :D




So 2.0 is going to have the controller, two part reservoir, and the dosers for both tanks inside its cabinet? Very nice.

hiya Steve,

Lol :lol2: true the renders does help in that department :thumbsup:

Yep, the P3 and GHL doser will be for 2.0.
The new doser will be setup in the cabinet of my old tank.
 
your patience astounds me Anup! tell me where you got that three chamber reservoir for the two part?

Hi Kev,
I'm being forcefully patient lol :lol2: I am trying to customize things and get the right stuff as much as possible to avoid mistakes...hopefully :facepalm:
The one I have I bought from a local LFS. But I think it's comin from China.
The chambers I'm getting something new with some "red n white" in it from SIAM. Also a custom reservoir. Stay tuned will post pictures of it. It will be hand carried to me within a week :D

I'm racking my head with the Profilux programming and all those cables that come with it....not easy :uhoh2:
