Well the time has come to start this thread! I Have been in the reef hobby since about 2012 and absolutely love it! I took about a 4 year break to play catch up in life with some new career choices and am now finding its time for me to come back! Lots of things seem to have changed with coral and fish availability so it’s pretty neat and interest with starting over!
My goal with this tank is to make it pretty hands off and low maintenance as best as possible. I’m currently waiting ecotech products before I can get it wet, but I do plan on cycling it for about 3 months with nothing but ambient light. I’ll introduce a pair of clowns during this process and maybe another fish or two but that’ll be about it.
This will be a mixed reef tank of some LPS, some SPS and zoas. I am going Sandless with an ABS bottom.
specs:
Waterbox 100.3 system
(2) Ecotech XR15 Blues w/RMS tank Mount
(2) Ecotech Mp40’s
Ecotech Vectra M2 Return Pump
NYOS 160 Skimmer
(2) BRS Titanium Heaters with Inkbird controller
(Waiting on an Algae scrubber from Turbo)
TMC Vecton 600 UV
(2) MarinePure 8x8x4 blocks in sump
Tunze Osmo for top off
AutoAqua Smart security sensors for redundancy
(2) Kasa WiFi Power Bars
TopLids Aquarium Top
