finally getting my build started wanted to share what im up to if anyone is interested in something like this
got myself a 75g rimless tank Deep Blue, 48x18x21
lighting is going to be 2x AI prime HD 16s ( down the road ill upgrade to something higher ) love the app features with the primes
Sump is a custom build from plexiglass i made myself replica of the ruby 36 exact measurements roughly
stand i built out of couple 2x4x8s ( ill be adding an LED strip inside for light / look )
ill be adding a chaeto grow light probably a 100w LED puck from amazon nothing crazy
return pump im using jabeo 1050 gph DC controlled pump ( nothing crazy does its job ) last pump lasted me 7 years
wave makers 2 x jabeo sow 5s DC controlled wavemakers ( nothing crazy does its job ) last ones lasted me 5 years with decent cleaning here and there
300w heater in the sump
Reef Octopus skimmer older model i got for dirt cheap
100 lbs of dry rock
100-120 lbs of Pink Fiji sand Fine grade ( wife loves it )
fish stock currently will be yellow tank, blue tang, 2 spawning clawns i might keep in the sump for babies not sure if the flow will give them issues tho?
watchman goby shrimp combo
"thinking" on getting a few schoolers like 4-5
maybe another goby
2 cleaners 2 blood shrimp
maybe a coral banded shrimp heard they can be aggressive to other shrimp and fish i dunno yet
heavy cleaning crew for sure
maybe a starfish
mandarin for sure once my pods build up
