Hello everyone!

This is my 90 gal build thread. I'm upgrading from a 58 gal with a 20 gal sump. I just picked up the tank today 90 AGA. Here is a list of what I'm planning to use from my 58 gal. Also I'm having trouble with PhotoBucket as I can't get pictures to upload. As soon as I get that worked out I'll start posting pictures.

Sump - Oceanic sump #1 I think it's 20 gal

Mite build my own using 40 gal breeder or 55 gal.

Skimmer - Octopus NW 200

Return Pump - Mag 700

Flow - 2 Koralia 3's

Extras - Two Little Fishes reactor with phosban

Must get new light set up, I'm open for suggestions and any ideas on lighting and just about anything other than tank size. I already made that choice.

Thank you! Jeremy

I'm using photobucket but I can't blow up the pictures. What type of T5 would you suggest? I'm leaning towords T5's.
 
I worked this weekend with help from family members on framing my basement and building my stand.

I also picked up a Koralia 4 for more flow. The 20 long will be my QT tank.

Nice job on the stand. Is it going to be an in-wall?

Thank you! No it's not going to be an in-wall. My plan was to have my wife make a cloth drape around it. So that way I could get to the sump or other items from three sides.

I drip one gallon of Kent kalkwasser once a month and add Kent calcium every couple of days.
 
You can get some window tint, some vaseline, and plastic spatula-type tool (or credit card). Apply the vaseline, then the limo window tint film, then use the credit card in all directions to force out any airbubbles. Usually you start from the middle and force it out in all directions.

There was a great thread about it on RC, but I don't remember the thread title nor the guy's name. However, his wife was cute. :lol:

Priorities, right? ;)
