I really love these two aquascapes I found online, Im considering having a combination of both LMK what you guys think. Oh my plans are Mixed reef

The top one for sure it give the corals room to grow and won't create as much shadowing over the corals.

Im in Pomona/Montclair area maybe alittle far for you but we can definately work something out:beer:

What type internet provider do you have? ie. Uverse...

 

[bullitr]

Uverse are PIA to network
Linksys router is the easiest with apex

Good to know Im currently using Belkin router, I've heard ppl doing great with Linksys-Apex Aquacontroller. Thanks for your imput.

 

[MxReEfEr92]

I have Uverse and have no issues I have figured it out pretty well

Maybe if you are ever around this way u may help me set it up. Ur time will be compensated :wave:

hopefully within the next week or two

 

[MxReEfEr92]

lol do you have uverse?

 

[reefish123]

lol do you have uverse?

Verizon :/

 

[reefish123]

ok so here is the deal ATT Uverse is not available in my area, I tested my verizon internet and the speed is at 2.90 Mbps I dont know if this is fast enough for the apex or shall I upgrade to Fios?

I'll pick up the linksys, any model you suggest?

now can easily watch videos on line or surf the web w/ no problem

OK what do you guys think I sould go with 2 tunze 6055's or 2 Tunze 6095's. I've been debating on this for awhile. What to hear what you guys think.

 

[bullitr]

2 6095 for sure
also there is a knock off TUNZE Call wp40 and its much much cheaper

For my 32" cube I will be using just be using 2 6045 and mp 40 w ES
Till I finish with my main tank

I have 2 6055's on my 75 gallon and I'd recommend using 2 6095's.

 

[bullitr]

How much did you spend on your sump
Can you please Pm me if you don't want to post it here.
Thanks

I wonder if the knock off pumps are compatible with the apex. We have about the same tank dimension looking forward toward your tank build.

This is my long awaited stand Ill be using Its a 1" thick gauge square tubing had this stand powder coated gloss white

hopefully Ill have the tank up on the stand tomorrow

 

[reefish123]

another quick update got the tank up on the stand with the help of 4 guys, well actually 3 because one of them was really weak (LOL). My wife and I did work on the wall with decorative wood. It was a ton of work but I was well worth it. So here are some pics. Oh I worked on the plumbing too!
