Jim's 180 build

[mpoletti]

Good stuff Jim. Thanks for the hand today

Lookin' good Jim. If you want some sand for the display, I've got a 50lb bag of #3 from John that I don't think I need.

Is John going to use sand in his 600 gallon?

Davey, I hear what you're saying. I like the low maintenance that BB offers.

The SSB in the display will serve no function other than looks though. After staring at John's display, I really like the look of sand

As for the DSB in the sump, I'm gonna run it until I start to see problems. If I do, Then I'll remove it. Right now I feel my system needs it. I need some extra filtration due to the low amount of LR I have in the display. It will hep for now.

Rob, Definitely start a build thread

It'll give us one more spot to hang out at

Thats a good question. I'm not really sure.

I'll ask the next time I go in.

Did you go there yesterday?

 

[mpoletti]

guys, John will be going BB in his 600 when he decides to set it up. The ease of maintenance is a big attraction to a store owner.

 

[tbone28]

Who's John? Is this another store I should hit up?

 

[mpoletti]

John Dakan is the owner of Your reef

 

[tbone28]

gotcha, well YR is already on my list for later this summer when I'm up in Roseville Will that 600g be up soon?

 

[mpoletti]

The 600 is on hold. It might take some time to gather all of the equipment needed to make that system what it should be

Bummer, I hadn't heard, but then John has a way of just slipping out before I get there every time.

[mpoletti]

When you are up here, Give peggy a call at Ost. I see them there pretty often. Wed is when they get their better selection of fish.

BTW, they have two stores, so if there are none at Ost, ask about aquaworkz.
