So I used to wholesale aquatic life, reptiles, and aviary. When
protein skimmers used air stones lol. I came back a few months ago with a plan.
75g glass framed
Built stand
20g older Marineland model 3 sump(modified)
3"pvc weir overflow with 3/4" drain
Jebao dct4 return pump
Sicce Syncra 1.5 for various needs
Two Little Fishie Reactor
Coral Life65 skimmer(I know I know lol) I didn't buy this lol
Eheim 300w Thermo Control
Inkbird Controller
Hygger wavemaker
Current USA IC Led 48-60"
80# dry rock for scape, used about 65#
60# AragAlive Fiji Pink
I started building a stand the week of Christmas 21'
Tank was purchased in March dollar per gallon, paid $107
Scape took about two weeks to build, since I was used to stacking Fiji in the past, and familiar with epoxy and super gluing my fingers together lol
I mixed reef crystals, rodi water the day before Easter 22'
On Easter 22' when the water had reached 80° the sg was .018
I started dosing ammonium chloride to 2ppm(so many drops lol). After 4 hours when Ammonia was 2ppm I started Micro Bacter XLM and the cycle had started.
After a week and a half the nitrite was still 5ppm but lowering. I decided to add 5 green chrommie to boost cycle. I have 4 now lol. 1 smaller chrommie ended up stuck in ball valve after getting sucked down drain.
Wed May 17th I added a pair of Ocellaris Clowns, 5 small Scarlet hermits, and a Strawberry White Tip Hermit(he's huge)
MORE TO COME .
