Reefer_NYC - UNS R180 Build

[Reefer_NYC]

Are the cables pulling on the fixtures slightly? Seems like there's a small amount of tilt. Would it be better to run cables up and along the rails?

Looks slick!

Trust me we've got it all cable managed and mounted correctly to aim straight down haha =)

Ooo, i see sand is going in. That answers sand vs. bb question

Scape is in using Marco Rock coralline. I went with two mountains cascading down to the right with an open valley splitting the two. There ample space in the back and front to allow flow to pass through. Plenty of swimming space and caves for the fish to enjoy and tons of surface to mount corals. Excited to add life to the tank soon!

Your are insane , amazing build thread. I’d personally like the scape a bit more random but corals can accomplish that as well

Neptune Apex Pro on board!

A3 Apex Pro Aquarium Controller System with Extra Energy Bar 832

Neptune's most robust aquarium controller with an extra Energy Bar 832 power module! Almost every aquarium we set up has an Apex Controller as the brain behind the tank, and always requires more than 8 outlets for full control. Now with the extra EB832 you get 16 total controllable outlets along...

Been using genesis rock and dosing genesis by Polyp Lab over the past month and now my tank is pretty much cycled! We were able to speed it up by using old biomedia, some live rock, and live sand from another tank. So adding more bacteria only helped it along even faster

Genesis Rock Power Rack - Full

Genesis Rock increases your tank's natural ability to remove phosphates and other organic dissolved solvents. Having problems with high nitrates, phosphates, or ammonia? Genesis Rock can help.
