Starting to put together a large build. I went back and forth between getting a Red Sea Reefer 1000, Cade 2100, or a large Waterbox. I ultimately decided to order a Planet Aquariums Mega Matrix 310.
I started collecting equipment a few months ago and so far I’ve ordered a Bashsea Pro sump, Apex Pro, Reefmat 1200, Marco Rock, Reef Octopus Regal 250 skimmer, BRS heaters with inkbird, Lifegard 120 UV, Aqua 57 watt UV, 2 48” Aquatic Life T5 hybrid lights, 4 Radion XR30 Pros, 4 Nero 7 wavemakers, 2 Cor 20 return pumps and Im sure a couple of things I’m forgetting.
I know I still need to order a chiller and at least one more pump, but the parts are coming in daily it seems like.
As far as long term plans I’m really struggling with stocking. I’d love to have a mixed reef mostly SPS dominate with some LPS, softies and clams, but I really want an Angel or two. Fish that are coming over from my 120 are:
Sailfin Tang
Blue Hippo Tang
Bristletooth Tang
One Spot Foxface
2 clowns
China Wrasse
Splinded Dottyback
Orange Spotted Goby
Ideally I would like to add a:
Purple Tang
Blonde Naso Tang
Emperor Angel
School of chromis
I’m pretty sure ill have to skip the Angels to have a mixed reef.
