Our tank was recently built by Glass Cages. I am definitely impressed by the quality! Wish it was that big :) lol. We can't wait to set ours up. They were so great with responding to any questions we had. Lots of options. Ours has ford blue perimeter bracing. Can't wait to set it up. Nice tank!!

LOL, sorry all, life has been taking up so much of my free time up. And yes, you guessed correctly it's going to be a SPS Dominant Reef. I'll get some updates going later this evening.

any stand photos?
Here are some photographs of the stand. Apologies that they are a bit color washed. The black bottom was provided with the stand. But I wanted to reinforce the bottom of it as I imagine it will have to support my weight as I'm tinkering around with valves and a few other pieces of equipment that I will be keeping underneath the stand. Everything else is located downstairs in the utility room/fish room.

I had some free time to do some maintenance this evening on one of my GHL Dosers. I was calibrating each of the 4 dosing heads to prepare to configure them for Iodine, Potassium, Iron and Trace Element additives and was lucky enough to be around when the GHL Magnetic Stirrers kicked off for their hourly mixing run, so I thought I would share.

Guys wants a new and bigger reef tank. Guy asks girl if he can purchase a bigger reef tank and she says yes. Custom reef tank arrives and girls immediately regrets that decision. :)

Nice setup.

Do the stirrers work independently of the ghl controller? Or does one need the controller to use the stirrers?

Are you running any other GHL besides dosers and stirrers?

im quite interested in going GHL with my reefer 350 build. I’ve never had a controller.
I love the idea of being able to monitor Alk with the KH Director as a stand-alone

Thank you. Not entirely sure. I would make an assumption that on the standalone dosers you should be able to access the magnetic stirrer settings and configure them accordingly. I would assume you need the controller on the slave dosers. I have both and both types of dosers and each has 4 ports for magnetic stirrers. But I run all of them in slave mode.
