85 Almost Cubed

bobbyM · Mar 24, 2018

I also picked up a premo 10 pack of acros hand picked by Josh and Victor at World Wide Corals!! A two part starter pack from BRS. I have them hooked up to my dosing pump! I have the next two days off, so hopefully I’ll find some time to take some pictures! I couldn’t be more stoked!! [emoji41]

Bobby, I like your build man. The 'almost' cube is cool. I like that you used low iron glass and the frosted glass back glass is a great idea. You're off to a great start, all you need now is for a year or two to pass so the frags can grow out!

I'm just getting my 50g cube finished. The tank has been running for a couple of years, but it was tied into the sump under my 120g DT that I just sold. So I currently have a 30g Brute as a sump. Just a single filter sock and no skimmer. I've built the new sump, but I'm waiting on a 2nd kitchen cabinet to be delivered as a stand for it.

Thank you!
Yup, just apply time and stability. I am wanting to get the aquatic life T5 combo for my Radion, and an Ice Cap Gyre. But other that that just wait. I may pick up a coral here or there but, I don't want it to look like a rainbow of different frags. Simple will look more natural.

A couple little updates. I added a few (7) more frags. Glued them in place. Also, trying to get hurricane prepped. I have a generator on the way, should be here today or the first part of next week. Dusted off my chiller and got it on line. I’m starting to wonder if oversizing the chiller was as good of an idea as I thought it was at the time of my purchase? But, it is what it is and will cool the tank with ease even if it is 100 degrees in the house.
