Great Job

Great Job

Ed, Great job on the tank. It's hard to believe it's been over ten years since you got me started on my first 60 gallon tank. Now this tank you you set up is giving me more motivation to set up my 375.

xxchodyxx, thanks. from past experience, cabling was a big issue. hopefully it stays this way as time goes by.

G!! whats up dude!! i know its been over 10 years since i got you hooked on reefing.. dang thats been a while. Get huge tank started and start a build thread. You'll find lots of help from everyone here. Cant wait to see that 375 up and running.. Let me know if you need help..

With a toddler at home and me being away. I added a door latch and magnetic switch on each side of the door. This serves two purpose, first to turn on the Sump light automaticly when i open the door. Second, if by any chance my son gets the door to open (without any supervision), i could have my controller email me.

Thanks Mark. thanks for the sand advice. I placed 9 bags of the ones you recommended. so far, no sand storm even if all pumps are ON.

Hey Ed, was just wondering how tall your stand is?

 

[drdoolittle]

Derek, the stand is 42 1/2.

Adding some Prodibio and Brightwell MicroBacteria 7 to jump start the cycling process. I also added a cup of live sand from a buddys tank. I'll be adding some fishes this week, i just need to catch them off my frag tank.

Is that toggle switch panel in the skimmer pic DC controllable?
