So first saltwater build. Starting with a 36 gallon bowfront. Going to run a tidal 55 filter, Reef octopus 90 skimmer, slw-20 wavemaker, 2 kessil a160’s with spectral controller. Have 32 pounds of live rock and 40 pounds of sand. Currently testing waiting for nitrogen cycle to do its thing. Will post pics when it’s complete.
