Well this was quite a journey to begin with..
First I researched the tank I wanted and the types of corals I wanted to put into it.
I came up with Redsea 750xxl deluxe
Perfect size 200g and came with an awesome sump. Let alone the lights came with it
But first equipment :
Refugium mud
40lbs live rock
7 brightwell biobricks
1 brightwell plate
Bubble magus B10
Jecod dc 15000
Maxspect gyre 250
Jecod wp40
4 AI hydras
Jebao doser
(Warning picture heavy)
Figured the place I wanted it
Who needs 4 people when you have two rednecks and a spotter
Time to level the stand
Beautiful let’s slide in the sump
Let’s cleaner her out and fill it up
Look at this monster skimmer
Day one of filling
Let’s start on the aquascape
Need a little more platforms for acropora
This is what I decided
I know I know I hear all of you screaming where is your biological filtration where is the rest of the live rock? I will have to give a shout out to @Brightwell aquatics for posting my image/testimonial to their Instagram
Yes I KNOW I have about 500k sqft of biological media.. (they’re great for seeding new setups, I’ll get to that later)
Morning of Day three still filling the beast
Aquascape in all pumps on!
Fairly plain beginning let’s start that cycle
With refugium light on
Got the quarantine setup ready to go
2 black ice clowns made it through 6 week quarantine (filet & O’fish)
It was quite a journey to make it here
