Looking really nice! I really like the Ro water set up..may have to copy but on a much smaller scale! I will only have a 75 gallon tank with 20 gallon sump. Also, just an idea. I don't know if you will be adding a sink to your counter or fish room, but I have noticed when I clean the tank equipment, the ultility sink I use kills by back because it is so deep. I am thinking about installing a large wide sink tub kitchen sink. Just a though. I have noticed BRS uses one and it seems to work well. I amreally enjoying the build!!
Right! I figure it's just "growing pains"... you know... growing from a 75 into a 180. lol Then there's Karma, ah well.
Very cool. That counter is perfect for a frag tank.I had a big day today! Took the day off last minute to spend it with the hubs and get some work done on the house. He cleaned out the garage (still is at this moment) and I cleaned out the rest of the fish room. We went to HD and purchased the lower cabinets and a prefab countertop for it, painted same, and got it installed in the fish room. I still need the uppers, but those will have to wait a bit.
The best news here is that now that I have the counter I can start getting new fish!!!!! YAY!!
Quick updated FTS even though nothing has changed just yet.
Still not the awesome space some people have, but it's pretty awesome for me and will serve it's purposes. I'm still adding to it though. Uppers and electrical cabinet, ect.
Very cool. That counter is perfect for a frag tank.
Looks great Meredith! I was at LFS in SPB and one of the guys gave me a couple 2"x 2" pieces of yellow tinted plastic film to hold over the camera lens to tone down the blue but still keep the vibrant colors. Worked like a charm if you are looking to tone down the blue. I have had great success just using my iPhone and the yellow film.
My biggest problem was that I wasn't sure how many watts I needed for a heater on this big of a tank. I've never had larger than a 90 before this.
I know I'm a little late to the party. But this is a GREAT thread ! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
Learned a few things too. You have a beautiful tank. So I'm curious... how did you go from a 90 gallon to a 75 ?
Looks great!!! A tank room is so awesome to have!
I'm pretty jealous of your setup lol.
Looking good meredith!
The counter space is awesome.
Enjoy the shopping!
Sounds good! I think in big tanks it's cool to have a bunch of small fish instead of having large fish....especially fish that school together and some that stick to themselves.Thanks! I'm ready for some fish now. Just have to decide what to get first. Maybe a small group of wrasses: Black leopard, lubbocks and a Scotts?
