New Nuvo marine 30 setup.
Kessil 360W Tuna Blue ( two planned)
Hydor Nano Skim
Apex with Ph and Temp.
Maxspect Gyre XF130.
Triplite GFCI.power bar.
LifeRock rocks and Caribsea sand.
Tunze nano top off.
Nuvo Marine on order:
Custom caddy's x 2.
Magnafuge lights x 2.
Minimax reactor. Midsize.



I had an empty space at the end of the kitchen table and the Fusion 30 L fits perfectly.
Kessil 360W. Will need two eventually once corals goes in.
Maxspect Gyre XF 130. I already have the XF 150 on the Elos System midi in the office and like it a lot. I am not sure how it will work on this long tank. I do not want it on the end of the tank so will see how it moves water towards the outside.
I have noted that it can only operate at about 30 % or sandstorm ensues!Also have to be careful not to blast a crater in the sand at the front
Will ordering the Icecap controller which should give great control

SPS will be on a rock shelf right in front of the Gyre and LPS and zoas more toward the edges.
May have to supplement with Tunze nano's behind the edges of the rocks but will see how it goes.
Hydor Slimskin Nano seems to fit well in the second compartment.
Planning to place a Nuvo Minimax with 50/50 mix GFO ( Rox 0.8) and GFO in the other compartment.
Custom caddy's and Nuvo Fuge lights to run mini refugiums in the bottom compartments of the caddy's.
Started cycling a month ago. Dr Tim's one and only.
Should have been up and running by now but Snafu on the first attempt.
Lesson not to try moderately complex tasks after three night shifts in a row.
Dosing amonnia and testing for Phosphate to get 3 ppm Ammonia not a good idea. Kept on adding Ammonium and by the time i realized why the test remained 0 had a toxic soup and all Dr Tim's good bacteria killed off. Complete water change and start over and now two weeks later cycling nicely.
So much for a cabinetles and sumples aquarium. Box behind table to house controllers Top off's
Calcium and alkalinity Dosing pumps etc etc, It is fortunately well hidden and meets the house rules!
Will keep updating.

Good trouble: Have mushrooms ever become pests in your aquarium?
