Build threads!

[KellyCorals]

I’m curious on what our members like to see in a build thread! My tank isn’t done yet but I’m wondering if I should wait to post my build until it’s done or start now and post my progress! Let me know what you think!

I like to follow it everyday and watch it slowly get put together! Nothing good happens fast in this hobby!

I'd say start from day one. Even from conception. All of the advice and encouragement is a great part of the thread, but probably the most useful part of a build thread is being able to look back and see exactly what you did and when you did it. You actually wind up with a chronological record of the evolution of your tank. How cool is that?! Imagine looking back after years to remind yourself how long you used this before you switched to that. Why you will never do THAT again. And exactly how long this piece of equipment lasted before it had to be replaced.

Admittedly, I'm guilty of letting my build thread go woefully out of date. I keep telling myself I'm going to update it, but the longer it goes, the harder it is to do.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I would like a couple more people to check out my build thread if you have the time and maybe drop a comment or two. Here is the link if you want to check it out! It’s not fully up to date but I’ve been posting everyday to try and catch up to where I actually am in the process. Happy reefing!

Nano Build - Going BIG when buying small! My Fluval 22 gallon Dual Display Mangrove Frag Tank!

I’ve had a total of 5 saltwater tanks through out my lifetime so far - all used (2nd hand). When you buy a used tank in essence your buying someone else’s dream - someone else’s vision. Sure you can change the equipment inside and make it to your liking. I’ve never bought a tank brand...
