How is your cycle coming along?
Where do you host your pics at?
I have reached my bandwith limit with Photo bucket.
They made me buy an account. I don't mind paying $40.00 for 2 years. I am just concerned about what would happen years down the road. What if something to me then what happens to build thread.

Zero's accross the board. I am switching everything over on Saturday. Buying some bacteria in a bottle just to make sure.

Nice setup. You're lucky since your wife is supporting your hobby. My wifey would have me sleeping with the fishes if the tank was inside the bedroom, lol. Good luck!

Thanks everyone, I am lucky that she puts up with her "fish geek" husband.

I bought a bunch of Bio Spira for the move of my 200 gal livestock tomorrow.

Tomorrow I will get out the good camera & take some shots. I have two 2.5 inch yellow tangs that I bought in the tank now & I can not believe how insignifigant their size looks in the big tank.

 

[AJT]

Moved the 200 out of the house & transfered the livestock. Also put 2 Ai modules on the sump.

I'm tired, that thing was heavy.

COunted 4 RBTAs & 18 GBTAs. Those things multiply like rabbits!

 

[david00061]

Are you going to use bio pellets or just a refugium?

 

[AJT]

I have had 1 gallon of BRS pellets & BRS GFO churning in the PM reactors for about 3 weeks.

Looks awesome!

For what it's worth; I tried those cheap inline fans and they weren't reliable long-term and didn't move much air if there was any length of duct.

If they work for you great; good value.

But if anyone needs to upgrade as I did, I've had great luck with a few of Panasonic's inline super-quiet fans. Got to find the right "dimmer" if you want to dial them back without making them hum, but very powerful and reliable and quiet.

I don't even know what to say other than I'm jealous!! Beautiful tank.

You know, a picture says a thousand words! hahahaaa

I would definately like to see the fan inline upgrade, please tell me about it.

Delivered from reefs2go.com. 400 additional snails.

I will have to pull out my good camera this weekend & get some better shots.


Thanks everyone for the kind comments. Friday we install my apex, 4 tunzes, chiller, Ozone, & carbon reactor.
