Cannot wait to share the journey with everyone here!! Advice always welcome Cycling coming in a few weeks.
It's been nearly 10 years since I owned a tank and I always wanted something big enough for tangs! So I've gotten back into the hobby with a 5ft Red Sea tank (older one with ATO in the sump).
It's quite exciting, the pricing was great and I've gotten near everything for $3k AUD.
- Tank and Cabinet
- Aqua One Arctic 1/3 HP Chiller
- Nyos 160 Skimmer
- 2 Tunze Nanostream 6095's
- All pumps
- Aqua Medi 4 doser
- Heaters
- UV Setup
- Reef Rock
- Water drums
- All of his test kits
With all of this, I've gone and picked my lights. Starting off, I'm getting 2 Kessil A360x's with the plan of adding 1-2 more as I move into SPS. I've got the rest of my equipment sorted from RO/DI to Salts and more!! So look forward to the tank setup in the next 2 weeks, picking up the lights, loading the tank into my Ranger Raptor and the panic in my face as I try not to smash it (I'm really stressed about this one).
Overall, I'm most excited about getting back into the hobby. I always loved it and wished I'd never left my cube behind. Maybe I'll even add a nano to the list just as a coral only tank.
Enjoy a few shots of the old setup and the tank empty. The guy that sold it to me had it immaculate, so I'm extremely happy with how good everything looked.
