New Setup: 114-Gallon Mixed Reef Tank Build


Hey reefers! I’m excited to share the details of my new 114-gallon saltwater setup. Here’s what I’ve got running so far:


Equipment:


  • Aquarium: AF OceanGuard 605
  • Controller: Neptune Apex A3
  • Return Pump: Cor15
  • Flow: WAV Powerheads
  • Heaters: Sicce Scuba 400W
  • Utility Pump: PMUP V2
  • Water Level Sensors: Two optical level sensors
  • Lighting: Reef Flare Pro Large
  • Auto-Feeder: Avast Plank
  • ATO Shutoff: Generic Amazon RO float kit as a manual shutoff
  • Water Monitoring: Seneye

Rock and Substrate:


  • 65 lbs Marco Rock
  • 40 lbs CaribSea Sand
  • 40 lbs Fiji Sand

Livestock:
Currently housing two clownfish, and they're doing great so far!


Looking forward to growing this tank into a beautiful mixed reef. I’d love to hear any suggestions or advice on what to add next—corals, clean-up crew, or upgrades. Let me know what you think!



Cheers!
