I’m not entirely sure about my stocking plan yet. I think I’m going to start with just fish for now and add corals as I get used to the maintenance and testing. I have 2 x 40 Gallon Breeders. I plan to drill one for a Synergy Overflow and also plan on taking the rim off and adding a Euro Brace to it. Rimless tanks look way better IMO. One key component I’m looking for now is a stand that can fit a 40 gallon breeder underneath as well as above of course. I’ve also considered making my own. After I handle that I’m going to attempt to plumb the tank and also plumb a manifold for the future. While doing all this I’ll be curing the rock. I hope to have the tank up and running towards the end of January. A 10 gallon tank is also pictured which will be my ATO reservoir when everything is setup. The 32 gallon Brute is what I will be using to cure my rock as it arrives. I also have a Maxspect Gyre xf250 for flow which I know is overkill. I will most likely oversize most of my equipment since I’m sure I will ultimately will go bigger the future. I’m still looking at equipment. My sump setup will probably be one chamber for filter socks or filter floss depending on how I set it up. I plan to make the first chamber big enough to add a Protien Skimmer to it. The second chamber will be for a refugium with cheato most likely. Then the return chamber with a Jebao DC-12000. If anyone has any insight or can help with any knowledge you might have going forward for me please post. This is my first build so I’m very excited but also very worried this isn’t going to go as smoothly as I want it to lol.
