JBJ RL 20 frag tank setup

[11f150]

Not sure if too many people have this so I would figure I would share mine. Just finished hanging the light yesterday, here is the equipment I picked up for it as well.

Went with a Cobalt Neo-therm heater. Fits in the back chamber and you cannot see it.

CAD Lights Nano Pipeless Protein Skimmer. Also fits with no issues and is quiet.

So far I'm really happy with it, I like the clean setup of it.

Letting it sit for a few days with a rock from my main tank then Im going to put the rack in it. Tested the water daily and it is cycled already.

Very nice Matt. It's tempting me to get one.

Going to following, I am going to be setting one myself when I get a stand built for it. How do you like the skimmer?

So far its really nice. Very quiet and really easy to tune in. The whole setup and really quiet between the pump, skimmer, and light. Really cant even hear it running.

any updates on this tank? can that lighting support sps?

 

[Mr. D]

Nice tank. I didn't realize they made a rimless 20 now. I'll be purchasing the same fixture soon.

To answer another person's question, yes that fixture can support sps.

What did you use to hang the light from the ceiling? Was it difficult at all?

It appears to be Aquatic Life's hanging unit. Check for it on their website. Also, I would order the light direct from Aquatic Life. Sweet deals on factory refurbs with standard warranty.

 

[Mr. D]

Sorry, I meant what was used on the ceiling to hang the light.

Same, aquatic life includes those with their hanging kit. It's some sort of like decorative thing that mounts to the ceiling bracket so you don't have to look at the bracket.

[Mr. D]

Thanks. I'll look into ordering from them directly.

I picked up this tank a few weeks ago. I've been pulling my hair out trying to settle on a skimmer.

Are you happy with the CAD lights pipeless skimmer? Is it noisy?
