Going need a nuclear reactor soon. Soooo, I just added another gfci to another circuit in the basement. Factoring the bathroom that's three 15 amp circuits to split the load of everything to, plus standard usage down here. Anyway, to the displeasure of my neck and back. Lights soon, hope they work lol. Haven't touched them since a test early November

Good idea for later! Temp is up to 76... It'll get there, eventually.
Made a makeshift power panel mounting board and we have light. Well, one for now lol. Using an Apex energy Bar w/o the Apex setup.
Also, first casualty. So figured out a solution to the neck and back issues.
Get another body part to hurt more. Crushed my nail bed right in half. Remember that ice cold tap water. Savior! Plus, pain meds... Good time for a break lol. Need to recruit the family to finish up for the day.

And more lights. Haven't hooked up the controller yet. Lights are default 80%. I'll worry about the T5s in a month or two.

That's awesome. I wasn't worried about a cycle at all... just acclimation. Sounds like you've got a good plan. Have you finished yet?!?! :0)

Is rock close to surface?

One rock is just few inches under on the right side.

Adding the fish really helped put a perspective to size. Time to start buying and quarantining fish.
Thinking of couple of skunk clowns for haddoni, and a pair of yellow tangs.
Going to hold off a bit on corals until I get the top off, skimmer, Apex and such setup.
The T5 lights will also help balance out the light. On the photos, the phone camera is really picking up the higher rocks. Eventually, want to get Mags and Gigs up there.
Need a solution for the haddoni, got him in a glass bowl of sand. Maybe make him a permanent acrylic sandbox.
So far, so good.

So have a pair of cute orange skunk clowns in the QT along with a royal gramma. Starting simple and slow. Next fish batch in Feb, thinking of the yellow tangs. Odd number seems to be preferred, so 3 it is.
So figured out the right height for the skimmer. 3D printing a stand for it. Had some spare filament around, HIPS. Let's see how the design works.

Tunze ozmolator hooked up. Gotta say, it does make life easy. Going to buy a 55g petco tank and use that as the ATO resovior. $1 a gallon FTW. It fits underneath the stand, in the other half with room to spare. Safe to say, all the space will eventually be used.
Here's the 3D printed stand.
7 x 7 x 7.5, can't believe I haven't printed tank parts sooner.
Next up, custom probe and heater holders. I can keep them stable and the heater top out of the water.

Super easy. Check out Tinkercad, free and web based.
I'm using a Taz 5 from Lulzbot to print. All open source. Can even 3D print to upgrade itself.
