Alsome thanksi used autocad for the drawing and setup, i used the furniture store (IKEA) free app to give a 3d view of room
are you setting up a system? let me know if you need anything at allAlsome thanks
I'm in the process of designing one. A couple years out. But your is definitely inspiration..are you setting up a system? let me know if you need anything at all
thanks, it has been great and i never did this before so everything you see was built while learning to do so..@scott11106, jesus man lol. I finally got through this whole threat. All I can say is wow, looks fantastic, great forethought. Fish room looks amazing. Everything is so very clean looking.
Questions
1- are you growing chaeto now? Or just using the scrubber?
2- with three of those apex eb8 power bars, are they all on one circuit? Or split up.
3- quarantine, do you just seed tank every time and use air stone? Is air stone needed?
4- do you like the way those neptune flow meter are working for you (I'm contemplating getting some)
5-what RODI is that, that you have?
Thanks again, you've been a huge help. Love the touch of cabinetry above/below incorporated in display side. Nice touch, cheers
thanks, it was quite the learning curve and still is just like everyone im sure but i really wanted it to be a showpiece both from the front and the back. my wife calls the fish room "the laboratory"..lolThis is an awesome set up!
yes i will take some tonight and post themNew here and came across this thread. I just scrolled through the entire process! So beautiful! Do you have any recent pictures? I'd love to see updates!
1. yes i do both with the sensors so it will also shut off my rodi as you wrote, works great, i actually use the sensor as the primary and the float as a backup@scott11106 good morning,
1-So if I understand correctly with the optical sensors. You have set them on/off through apex for you reservoirs? Or just as warnings? I wonder if you could use the high optical as a back up way of shutting of RODI if a float fails, is that achievable?
2-I also am just thinking about keeping my QT going none stop. And considering I have two 75g to work with, i also would want to do a frag tank later on also. So you wanting to do auto water changes, is that why you have 4 of the dos?
3-sry check valves for where? As pertaining to my build location.
4-flow meters, I think I'm going to do exactly what you have done, honestly makes complete sense, why not.
Amazing how much you've re learned and your progress really fantastic. I cant wait till my custom is delivered and finally sitting in its final spot lol. Maybe 3-4 weeks out yet...ugh. it's amazing how similar your build is to what I'm doing, love it.
13x8 and the first page of this thread has a floorplan for reference if you want to take a look, i think it is a perfect size but i would have made the tank bigger if i did it again, get the largest tank your space will allow, you will thank me later after your wallet heals and you are all up and runningRandom question, how big is the fish room? Doing some planning and have some sizes in mind and trying to see what it will actually look like.
