Hi fellow reefers. This is an upgrade from my 40 gallon cube that has been running for 12 years. Finally stepping up to the bigger boys tank. It is a 180 Lee Mar eurobrace with Lee Mar stand. 100 gallon sump with sro 5000 and waveline 10k return. Nothing fancy in the sump setup. Tank has been cyling for almost 3 weeks now. Looking forward to all the critiques with better improvement. Im thinking of going with a mix tank this time around.

Next step is to make a light mount to sit on top of tank. Going with 4 radions gen 3. 2 pros in the middle and non pros on outside edge. Still need to setup the apex controller. Right now i have 2 mp40wes running but will add another mp60qd when i have corals.

Thank you for looking!
 
Can any mod please help me fix the title and erase one of the upgrade wording. Lol stupid fingers
 
Looks like a nice start. I had a 195g LeeMar and it was an amazing tank, look fwd to the build.
 
Its been long while since I updated. Last time I posted, I have taken down the tank to try an buff out the glass with cerium oxide. That didn't work at all. So tank has been up and running now for 3 months.
These pics are with old lighting.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
