Hello all! I've lurked around these forums for quite a while but have not posted much. I've had a variety of tanks over the last ten years but nothing quite like what I'm looking to do now! The tank is currently on order and should arrive in a month or so. We are building a new house and can't wait to get this piece in place.
Tank: 200g Planet Aquariums Tank. 60"x30"x25". Starfire front pane.
Stand: Aluminum Stand by Framing Tech. Skinned with hardwood and painted
Lighting: Currently thinking through hanging three Kessil 360x pendants in an Aquatic Life T5 Hybrid. There are a few things I dislike about this fixture, such as opposing electrical chords and wiring of ballast. Luckily, these critiques can be changed fairly easy through some DIY projects.
Sump: Elite Aquatics Custom Sump
Flow: MP 40s or maybe some Octo Pulse 4s????
Skimmer: Bubble King Double Cone 150
Controller: Apex Controller System
Doser: GHL 3 head doser
Live rock: Tampa Bay Saltwater- I've got 80 pounds circulating from my old system. I'll get this going in the tank and see if I need anymore.
That's all that I can think of for now. Please chime in with any suggestions along the way...that is part of what I love about this hobby. So much experience and wisdom to gain from other folks!
