My temporary ato is still an orange bucket haha. Someday I'll build a nice container, someday..
Does it work? Yes?

does anyone see it? No?

then what’s the rush?

I have a 20long under the sump, but I did used to use a 20g tough box tote, that used to be my v1 water station container. If it holds water, and you can put a pump in it- go with it.

Things are slowly coming up, but my salinity probe needs calibrating- it’s a point off.

hoping to get this stabilized by tonight, then I’ll dump a half bottle of clarity in there and hook my filter tube up, and get that water sparkling by tomorrow morning. Then a quick polish with some carbon, adjust my nitrate and phosphate levels, and start transfer of rock, corals and fish on Friday or Saturday. I’ll drop a bottle of microba7 startup in there when I transfer all the rock too.

Rocks and fish are in, working on corals this afternoon.

scape didn’t come out exactly as planned, but I think it’s just as beautiful as the first round

Great build thread, took me hours to get through (I admit, not every word). I'd be ticked at that realtor, but hey you got to reuse a lot of that material. Guaranteed, your house sells & sells over in 1 day with or without the fish room... people don't care in this market.

Quick question, what is the size of your new fish room?
