So my last tank crashed. I left the alk dose pump on to prime and forgot overnight and the next day. All corals eventually died.
Right now I have 4 tanks in the house. I'd like to get rid of my current large tank and move the rest, and my reptiles out to the garage and eventually make the garage my "man cave". I am getting married soon and plan to have a kid after.
I have hundreds of pounds of live rock that have been cycling for over 6 months.
I plan to do something I've never seen before with 2" tall of starboard on the back and front 2/3 of the tank with a "pool" of sand in the middle 1/3 so I can have the benefit of bare bottoms front and back, where I can try to get enough flow to grow sps hopefully without a pump on the other end of the peninsula. But also have some wrasse or jawfish.
Plan is to have almost only sps, run 6 hydra 52 HDs, get an apex with trident and DOS and auto dose alk and calc . Plan to do Kalk in the ATO.
Eventually in future another DOS for AWC, calc rx, drag tank.
7'x3'x2' Reef Savvy peninsula 3/4 in low iron glass on 3 sides. Steel stand with teak cabinetry. 5'x2' acrylic sump.
Had the fish guys in orlando load it up for me, they did a good job and it only took two guys to do it.
Me and 6 strong friends unloaded it by hand. Yes we used those $10 suction cups, yes they worked, and yes it was scary.
This should be fun...
