11F150's 180 Gallon Basement build

Very nice

So, now that a lot of the heavy lifting is done with the tank what are your plans for turning the area into a man cave. I know I'd have a comfy couch in perfect view of the tank, for starters.

Yes that is next! I'm going to have a 20 amp circuit ran to that area so I can run more stuff and get a refrigerator for beverages [emoji482]. Couch and a table will definitely happen. Probably going to get a large rug for the floor and of course man cave decorations.

Very cool and definitely jealous.

Skimmer has calmed down a bit and the tank is starting to clear up quite a bit. Had micro bubbles bad from the skimmer overflowing

Been a while since I updated. Tanks have been cycling and are ready for fish. Ordered my first fish from @Reefwise here are the WYSIWYG pics.

 

[zachxlutz]

Pretty fish! What are they?

Lineatus and Red Margin

Wow this is easily one of my top 3 favorite rock arrangements I've ever seen

I love the rock layout too! :)

As-pictured that's a pretty low-flow setup with a semi-dead zone in the middle 24". Does this jive with your coral plans, or do you have plans to change up the flow solution at some point?

Adding a third mp40 and moving them all to the back wall would be the ideal Vortech solution.

You could also repurpose the money you already have in the two Vortechs on a different solution, probably without spending more than you already have in it.

Just thinking! :)

Hey this will work just fine with my coral plans since it's going to be fowlr for quite sometime :) but if I decide to go coral I will get additional power heads for sure.
