Hi everyone, I’m starting a new build and wanted to use this space to document it. I’ve loved aquariums since I was 7 and still remember the day my dad brought home the first tank. It was fresh water for several years, I moved on the planted and for about 20 years in reefing. I’ve had about 6 tanks- all nanos, so this is my first real reef tank.
I acquired the reefer and equipment about a week ago and it is currently cycling with Red Sea reef mature on day 4. My biggest pet peeve is visible equipment in and around the tank and a mess of wires in the sump so i’m Really going for neatness here. I currently have a Red Sea max nano that I will be selling in a month after moving my stuff over to the 250. So here goes...
Tank:Red Sea Reefer 250, white stand, non modified sump
Control: New Apex
Return: Apex COR 15
Skimmer: Nyos 120
Lighting: 2x AI Hydra 26 HD
ATO: Apex ATK, 5 gallon reservoir in stand, pmup and Apex water level sensor
Dosing: Apex DOS & DDR
wavemaker : Apex WAV
BRS pump dosing NoPoX controlled by Apex
Sand: CaribSea pink Fiji
Rocks: CaribSea shapes
After 21 days I plan to start bringing over livestock. This will be a mixed reef.
