90.3 Waterbox FOWLR is on the launch pad. Though the launch pad has a water-stain on its door (irony!) so we're waiting for a replacement door before setting it up. It's been several weeks since the original order, so what's a few more...days. Door heights will be evened out when the new front arrives. In the mean time, aquascape has been scaped which I'll epoxy once the door arrives. Without any live coral, I'll likely decorate with some decorative (dead) coral for texture and color. Very looking forward to having this thing running so I can begin stocking.

After a few manufacturing issues with the cabinet, my Waterbox Marine X 90.3 is up and running. Huge thanks to Reed at #TankItEasy for the installation service. I could’ve likely figured it out…in two to three days. They did it in hours! It looks great though I need to minimize the return pump vibrations—ordered the Sound Dampening Pad from BRS. Need to get the full equipment list but here’s some set up pics in the meantime.

Little update. Initial water cycle with Dr Tim’s done. Time for the first fish cycle—pair of midnight ocellaris clowns. They’re not too happy yet. Right now they’re just hovering in the back not eating—turning the pumps off during feeding—but lfs said to give them a week or so. Bought a Two Little Fishies feeding ring to see if that coaxes them out a bit. Next time might reconsider black fish with the black backing but they are gorgeous. lol

Love the aquascape design
