I did at the beginning of the week. Is it a good idea to run GFO to pull out any po4 leaching out of the rock?

Good idea thanks

Appliances, and of course, the preventative maintenance agreements that go with them. Lol

Here is a up date on my cycle progression. A week ago my no3 was 10 ppm and now they are 40 ppm. This pic says it all.

I finely got my auto top off hooked along with my controller. Still need to tidy up the wiring which is a challenge.:hmm3:

Looking good buddy, what will be your first addition?

 

[Apollo1K9]

Looks awesome! How do you like your RKE? I'm thinking about getting a RKL.

The first addition was a hermit crab about a week ago I am happy to say he is still alive lol.

Most likely the first fish will be my pair of clowns I have had from the beginning which means I will also give them the RBTA they are hosting. Then there is a whole list of fish that I am working on. :artist:

I like it well enough but I don't have anything to compare it to. I have heard good things about the Apex as well.:rolleye1:

 

[Jorsh!]

really nice! Awesome!!!
I admire people like you all the time!

 

[Lady R]

Dave you did a great job!!! Be for you know it. It will be filled with awsome corals.:beer:

 

[Tater11]

Lookin good buddy

 

[marco j]

Looks great man! I've got a few weeks before we break ground in my basement so your updates make my mouth water!

Btw hold on to that Calc reactor I will definitely take it off your hands. Thanks!

 

[jtrasap]

This is looking awesome dave! I won't be starting my big tank project until around March but every time I look at your thread I get an itchy trigger finger.

 

[Reeferhead]

Looks good Dave :thumbsup:

I would not trust the suction cups on those float switches.

What would you do, cut them off and glue on magnets or maybe add a dab of silicone between it and the glass?

 

[Reeferhead]

Magnets or better yet some sort of bracket that drops down from the eurobracing

 

[tall_jason79]

i agree..... nothing would be worse than coming home after a long days work to a soggy floor...... looking good

 

[sbabs]

Your work is very impressive. I'd love to have your attention to detail. I have it, I can just never find it.
