Hi everyone, going to start a build thread. I have been out of the hobby for years, but by virtue of rotating to a new land assignment and having 3 years in Miami, I figured why not get a little nano-ish tank going!
I am currently in the freshwater leak testing stage and so far everything seems good! Went with a Sicce Syncra Pro 550 for the return. Thing is super quiet.
For updates:
Tank was received Friday, 8/7 and put together Saturday, 8/8. The stand had some odd issues. Everything was really really solid, except the cam screws are screwing into some kind of silicone fitting that seems like it is glued into the holes. On three of the cam screws, that glued base came loose in the hole and I couldn't advance the screw any further as the base was spinning with them. Two were on the top of the cabinet, so not really weight bearing. The third however was in the middle of one of the walls of the cabinet. The cams can still lock on these and the stand seems stable. But I am going to wait to put anything other than freshwater in the tank until Red Sea gets back to me about the ticket I submitted.
Will post updates as they come!
