Greetings,

I was lucky enough to receive one of these in the test group, and decided to start documenting my builds since I am also working on setting up a new 200g waterbox tank, figured I would start with the easier one.

The tank came extremely well packaged and is very well made. I had a small problem keeping the pump connected to the return, but got that solved with a ziptie. Makes a fantastic little macro tank. I am planning on adding a citron goby in the future.

Build consists of:

ReefBuilders Pico refugium 9 watt light.

Sicce syncra nano 110gph.

Custom cut DD jumpguard pro.

Rocks and sand left over from another build.

Macro from my sump that would of otherwise been tossed.

Just noticed some of the ulva has started to grow off the rocks, was hoping it would attach at some point.

Very nice! Macro tanks have always been interesting to me. It's like having a little forest underwater (or a large forest if you are in the ocean)
