Hey everyone! My name is Anna (Ah-na, like the Frozen princess) and I'm a long time lurker, but first time poster! I started reefing during COVID with a 50 gallon SCA cube. I've been bitten by the bug and currently have a Waterbox 220.6 shipping as we speak! I'm super excited to document my progress in my very first build thread! I'll be focusing on making it a mixed reef. Happy to take any feedback along the way!
Here's what I've plan to run (either enroute now or stolen from my old tank):
Tank: Waterbox 220.6 w/white cabinet
Return Pump: Neptune COR-20
Pumps: 2 VorTech MP40mQD
Lights: 3 Radion XR15 G6 Blue LED (might add one more down the line if I find these don't cover as well as I'd like)
Heater: 800w THH Deluxe Aquarium Heater Bundle - Finnex
ATO: Neptune
Testing: Neptune APEX/Trident
Lid: Clearview custom
I plan to kick off the cycle with the Dr. Tim's fishless cycle as I'm hesitant to bring a ton over from the old tank (battling some hair algae right now). I will spend this weekend working on the aquascape!
