Omelette's tank

Omelette_du_Fromage · Aug 28, 2020

Hello there,

Here is my new tank : 100x50x50 cm - 250 litres. (40"x20"x20" - 66 gallons)

It's a Eheim aquarium. I added a hole on the rear glass to connect to the sump.

Final equipment will be :

Lightning : Kessil A360WE x 2
Skimmer : Vertex Omega 150
Sump pump : Octo Vario S2
Circulation pumps : Jebao SLW-20M x 2
Used 38 kg of live rocks from Indonesia coming from a four years old tank. Full of life.

I want SPS on top and LPS on bottom. I will chose them carrefully because I have little space.

A couple of black Amphiprion Occelaris from a Museum breeding and a Ctenochaetus strigosus will be the first fish I will have. Perhaps a Gramma Loreto or something similar will be added in the future.

Here is a picture taken yesterday evening.

Waiting for NO2 to drop.

Receive my Vertex Omega today. Used one but it works good. Just perfect for my volume. Not too much noise and a very good amount of tinny bubbles.

Hello,

Here are the news : the tank feels good and little corals grows :)

But I think it is too small so I started a new project : 800 litres ordered. It will be placed here. 160*80*65 cm

I build this wood support. I found a used Bubble King Deluxe 200 first generation in perfect condition.

I ordered a Aquaforest AF735 sump, new pumps and lightning. I will post some pictures when the tank will be in place.

Regards

Hello there,

A little update on this ending year.

The tank was delivered and goes back to manufacturer : was broken by delivery man when pulling it out from the truck :eek:. So I had to wait two weeks to get the new one. :mad:

Was installed. Put water in the tank. Put water in sump and.... the sump leaks :oops:
Contacted the seller and I will get a new one normally next year, first week. ;Meh

Received my new Royal Exclusiv RD-X for my old DeLuxe 200 : works great :)

Installed my two Jebao 120 gyre pumps. Had to sand the rotors because pumps make a weird wouwouwouwouwouw noise when working. Now they are silent. :)

I project to order a GHL Aquatic Life Hybrid T5 ramp 48", 4x54w tubes, for the tank.

Hope next year will be better. ;Happy
