So I have been calling getting quotes on a 180g. I need you guys to talk me out of getting a 180. I dont have a big house, The dining room is only 9 foot wide where the tank would go. All the equipment would have to be in the cabinet.
Initial cost is a bust, i want an sc aquarium but i just cant. My lfs is getting me a quote on marineland undrilled because i want ghost.
I have a 90 corner flow now with 6 t5. I would want to ditch the old 4 t5 fixture and get two led fixtures at $1000.
Reuse sump with slight redesign. Ditch lighted refugium
Did i mention i just set up the new 90g in september? With a cabinet and canopy that took me 3 weeks to build in my garage.
I did do some things right. My skimmer is good for 160-300g. My dc return pump is good for 1500gph.
I went from a 55 to the 90. I thought the 90 was my dream tank. Ive been searching posts and researching for the last week.
I estimate my energy bill to increase by about 30-40 a month average. Anyone from the midwest comment on that figure?
Im scared about not being able to keep up with dosing. I just got into dosing and have been doing it manually. My water change routine of 20 gallons every two weeks currently is not to bad. Use a brute can and pump with hose so I have graduated from 5g buckets. I dont have a water mix station but i think i could make one with two 60g round tanks
I think a large tank like a 180 and bigger is a richer mans game probably. Haha
