Megabite's 180 Reef - Round 2

[MegabiteOG]

Congratulations on 1 year! You survived! Now to find the t-shirt...

Lets not go there on the t-shirt/ jersey (depends who you ask). I'm still sore about it.

Thanks man!

I've done a few things as I continue tweaking the tank. I never leave well enough alone.

Had a BK Mini 160 skimmer laying around so I through it in the sump as a second skimmer. Pulled all the bio balls and blocks out of the sump and added some dry rock. And lastly printed a custom shelf for my ozone that slides down into the back panel of the Waterbox stand. Came out really nice and will make more stuff with this mounting style to continue organizing the cabinet.

"Hey, look how cool I am, everyone! I run two skimmers on my tank. How many do you run?"

I am happy you removed that media as it is known to leach bad stuff.

(I secretly think the 2 skimmers look cool.)

That media definitely looks suspect. It is pretty obvious that has been breaking down in your system! Glad you pulled it out!

You know it!

Now this freakin' song is stuck in my head.

I was working on my property today and thought, Is it me or does everyone love their "other" equipment just as much as their reef stuff? I certainly do.

As an example, I love all of my lawn and maintenance equipment among other tools.

Love my tractor.

Love my mower

Love my assorted trimmers and chainsaws.

Now, don't get me started on hand and power tools!

This vid is for you @That Crusso Kid. I was chipping some fallen trees and brush today and know that you're a tractor guy. This chipper is really nice and compliments my tractor really well. The combo is a beast chipping up to 8" diameter trees. Figured you'd appreciate it.

Also, our turkeys had babies and they are running around all over the property.

There is so much I like about this post that it moved me from "like" to "money" to "love!"

Ohhhh, the fun I could have with that chipper and the neighbors I might not like.

And, finally, there is this...

Love both of these tunes! I'm a huge country music fan along with many other genres.

The chipper is also good for frags that tick you off.

Nice control display for under $40.

It's very convenient installed on the cabinet in front of the tank. I have it on magnets so I just pull and use if I want it in my hands. Lots of times I don't have my phone or iPad on me then have to go look for it to do things. It's always on and charged up for viewing and using.

Can I get a link for it?

Amazing pics!

This one is popping - whats it called?

 

[MegabiteOG]

Thanks JonoH. I’ll see if I can find the name. I got it in auction from SBB Corals. I will look forward a daylight shot as well.
