Hello! I have recently started to purchase equipment for what I consider to be my dream build! Although ideally I would like to go bigger, I don't think my budget will ever allow for it. Im a long ways away from starting or completion, and have already run into a multitude of hiccups. I just want to get the ball rolling by sharing it with you all and fueling my passion and desire for this Reef.
So far I have purchased the Waterbox Reef Pro 180.5 and it should ship the week of August 17, 2020.
Along with that I have ordered the following Equipment:
