New build 800+ DT mixed reef with 1300 g total system

[Bow]

Keep with the custom. Go to hd or lowes an get some acrylic or plexi.

Ya I went and priced out some acrylic. Now ill have to cut and fit.

Monster Reef and I put together the QT system. Looks good Ill take pics once its painted and set where I want it. I had the original idea that I had from Gimmito, but due to the fact I ended up needing to be able to get behind of the QT system since its in front of a window that I will have blocked. When I say blocked i mean from sun lite. Also Im not sure if i will stick with this design. But for now by the end of the week or mon of next I will place a fish order to fill it with.

Since the system is running, I am waiting for it to cycle. I figured by the time it has cycled, the fish will have been in QT long enough. Once Those fish get introduced I will order again and do the same to that batch.

[nitrox36]

LOL sorry I know bro, we can work on that Saturday when u swing by the house and help me! lol

 

[tangboy]

Awesome fish wish list! Careful with the fox face, they can nip coral...

 

[schooleyosis]

Tangboy, is that your personal experience with a Foxface?

I've got a large Foxface in my system and have never had an issue with it nipping corals. To be honest with ya, I've never heard of that with a foxface before...

 

[nitrox36]

Ya same here I have a had multiple Fox faces same as coral beauty and neither have nipped!! But good heads up bro thanks.

 

[tangboy]

I have never had a fox face because a local reefer told me they were nippers :/

 

[schooleyosis]

Mine is bigger than Galaxy S3 phone and I've never had an issue.... Go get you a Foxface! LOL

 

[tangboy]

Alright my friend, time for updates!

 

[Xingu]

Yes, what he said :wink:

 

[nitrox36]

I should be ashamed of myself for no updates in a while.... I assure you I have been working on it.
