Hey Fellow reefers. So I finally splurged and ordered a 200 Ext. I was told it be 4-6 months out. Being in Alaska you have to be patient because everything is a ridiculous wait. How long has everyone normally waited to get there's. Also any suggestions on equipment would be appreciated. So far ill be running two 300 watt heaters two vectra returns 4 xr 15s and two ai grow blades. I'm torn on using my skimmer as i think it'll be to small (RSK 300) i might be able to get away with it till i fully switch everything over. I already know my reef mat is to small. Whatcha guys got i would love to see some pics I'm so torn on how i wana do the scape.
 
Congratulations on the new build. Can’t wait to see it. I started my 75 gallon tank in January. Finally got the live rock in May. I still have issues with the setup but love the process. I would always recommend Tampa Bay Live rock. Loaded with so much life and no need to cycle. Not cheap, but it has things you can’t buy. I decided on a cave filled drop off aquascape. What are you thinking about?
