Lee’s 180 gallon Planet Acro Tank

[leepink23]

Got a few Father’s Day gifts in today!

Eventually going to 3d print a trident mount so I can use the ato for storage again.

Not much new. Acros are growing. I did order 2 Octo pulse for my back glass and a wave engine to control the gyres and pulses. I plan to move a Walt Disney, Homewrecker and Orange Passion this week.

Actually a friend is going to 3d print it for me. Will post pictures when he completes it.

 

[leepink23]

New equipment! And some acros from the shop!

 

[leepink23]

So far I like the flow engine. Adding the 2 reef Octopulse to the back has some serious flow going.

Overall the tank is looking good and coralline algae is starting to grow.

Got a prime installed over my frag section in the sump. Will add a tiny wave maker. My plan is to start moving frags from the shop to the house slowly transitioning to shutting the frag tanks down. Also got battery backup installed to run through my wave engine

 

[leepink23]

Added a bunch of frags to my sump section. Will add the last of the acro frags in a few weeks. I will need to swap the prime over to my ai 32

 

[leepink23]

Changed lights to hydra 32 for sump frags. Now can hold about 100 or so acros

 

[leepink23]

I now have 80 frags in my sump/frag section. With plans to add about 20 more. I placed an order from Battlecorals to fill in the display more with some high end tenius and millepora. This will leave just enough space to add a final few high end tenius from TSA. Also plan to order more fish in a few weeks from Alien Reef Aquatics.

Current full tank shot and a few of the acros growing in it.

 

[leepink23]

Well the tank is doing great! I have more acros coming from @Battlecorals tomorrow! I already know they will be super high quality.

A few pictures of the acros growing

 

[leepink23]

And a few more

I ended up getting a canopy for rimless tank built by planet because we were tired of the blue light in the kitchen. I may add some front to back eurobracing now that the canopy covers up the rimless look.
Also added 2 fans controlled by the apex

Looks great! I love the open top look but can’t deal with light spill, all my tanks will have canopies from now on
