Hey everyone! I'm going to document my tank build here. I have a 3.5 gallon jar that I will be using as the tank. I plan on using stax with a sheet of marine pure to create the aquascape. I will be plumbing in 4 .25" hard acrylic lines 1-airline for circulation 2-ATO 3-automated water change in 4-automated water change out. I am still deciding on the lighting for it. But it will be an sps dominant tank. Possibly with some lords, favia, challis, and monit. I want to put two or three spike in goby in as well.
I am currently building the ATO and the Water change system from scratch. (You will see that on my breadboard in the pictures below) the so I am still designing things, but i am finally starting to build it. It should be a lot of fun

I just finished drilling out the first inch of the .25" acrylic tubing to accept the airline connector. Now all I need to do is heat up the acrylic and wedge the connector in there
