waterbox 180.5

<re-posting to create a BUILD thread> Sorry for the duplicate Hi friends! Creating a build thread. I currently have a 9 month Reefer G1 9 month old RedSea. It's on our middle floor and somehow talked the wife into an upgrade. Bought a WB 180.5 and will be going into the basement. Overall, I...

I am trying to properly plumb my Waterbox 180.5 to my Ecotech Vectra M2. I have been running the tank since June using the Vinyl tubing that comes with the Waterbox and connecting it to the barb kit sold by Ecotech. The problem with this setup is that the barb does not fit snuggly into the vinyl...

"Dueling Dragons Reef" ~240 Gallons of Water Volume Experiment Time - We recently plumbed in 2x 40 gallon breeders to the system to expand the water volume and have a place to house any future inhabitants that don't work out in the main tank like non-reef-safe creatures / plants. I'm leaning...

The initial spot I wanted to put my Waterbox 180.5 turned out to be too unlevel for the provided leveling feet to compensate for so I decided to wait until we renovated another room to setup the tank. I actually ended up having the same issue with uneven flooring in the next room (the house...

I was hoping I could get some input into my current stocking level. This feels to be a fairly ephemoral concept so it would be great to hear from people with more experience. I am running a 180g mixed reef. Rockwork is setup so that there are tonnes of places to hide and so line of sight is...

Hi All, Today I am starting off my upgrade journey. My existing tank is a Red Sea Reefer 250 (65 Gallons). I will be upgrading to a Waterbox 180.5. My hope in all of this is be able to get some of the fish, corals and inverts I was never able to before whilst maintaining a stable mixed reef...

Was super excited to order my first WaterBox. What an amazing looking product! Yesterday my 180.5 HD arrived. Excitement turned to disappointment quickly. My tank arrived with two prime freshwater lights and one Hydra 32HD light. I get it, shipping mistakes happen, so I pushed forward and...
