After reading about some amazing jar reefs for a couple of years now - Brandon and later Maritza- I finally decided to take the plunge. I had my 120 then tried a 60 cube but I was plagued with problems with the cube and spent around 9k on it and became disheartened. What better way back to the hobby then basics!
Found this jar at target, 2g, nice and thick. $12
I also picked up some silicone to make a “lip” to help seal it up. $4
I had some sand which I was torn on adding, and had a sicce nano powerhead I had not used.
I am terrible at putting even silicone, but once top and bottom skinned well I put the lid on to get a better fit. It’s not gorgeous, but not bad either as you don’t look at the lid.
Here it is the morning. Still bit cloudy, but I am pleased. I ordered a hydro neo them heater. The light will be. Kessil a160 but I don’t have it yet.
