Show Off and Discuss Your NUVO Concept Aquarium!

[Rory282]

Just started setting up a dropoff tank and looking for inspiration, thought it was funny that I ended up using this exact IKEA shelf as stand as well! Following this thread, please keep the pics coming!

Hi PupChow, aren't you afraid the stand will collapse? It only supports up to 13kg . Thinking about using one on a spare fusion 10 i've got.

Off to a wonderful start! What are you planning to use for water testing?

As of now I plan to purchase the API test kit, is there any other test kist you'd recommend?

API's Reef Master Test Kit is probably the easiest to use and is what most reef hobbyists start with. Salifert is our most popular brand.

Any word on whether there will also be a glass replacement for the peninsula drop off as well? And when it will be out?

I haven't heard anything official. I'm not sure they will go on the record to confirm it's even in the works, although I've reached out to sources to see if I can find out anything for you. I will follow up!

Interesting. Someone from IM told me it was out, but I have yet to see anyone with it online. They did update the PDF catalog on their website with it:

Well there you go! You scooped us. I think we all presumed they would, although this is the first marketing I've seen for it. Thank you for sharing! I will let you know what Innovative Marine says once they reply. Obviously the cat is out of the bag so hopefully I can get some more deets for you.

My one year old abyss drop off. It is packed full and some will be moving to my Fluval Evo in a week or so. I have the AI Prime HD and the desktop skimmer. Upgraded the pump to the Socci 1.0
