Well, it finally arrived today! 90 gallon SCA low iron glass tank, stand, sump etc. They call it a cube, but at 36x24x24 it’s not quite cubic, lol.
Anyway, after a struggle to get it into the house, I’m excited to get it set up. Unfortunately, because of a delay in shipping it is going to be a while before it is filled. We are leaving for a 2 week vacation in 8 days. There is no way I can get it plumbed and filled in time. Work gets in the way, lol.
I have had freshwater tanks in the past but this is my first venture into a reef tank
So far the (purchased) equipment list is:
SCA 38 gallon sump (included in PNPsystem)
SCA 302 skimmer (included)
Hygger 1350gph return pump ( Jebao under another name)
2x Sicce X-stream E power heads ( a steal at $89 each)
BRS 300w heater
BRS 5-stage RODI
80# Caribsea dry rock, most of which has been curing/ cycling with Dr Tim’s in a brute for last 2 weeks
60# Caribsea live sand
Spears gate valves, various plumbing stuff
APC UPS
2x10g and 1x 20g aqueon quarantine tanks (love the Petco $1/g sales!)
I am still weighing options for lighting.
