So we have begun the scape, I ended up trying out the Carib sea reef trees and arches. I love the color and how easy they come together. I ended up pretty much just using the arches to creat what you see bellow. Not sure how I feel about the scape so far

So here is another revision after I forgot to account for the overflow lol

Came in for the tank, Those who know me know that I have always cycled tanks with mollies and a little bacteria. I have heard great things about Dr Tims so it was time we give it a try :)

Hi, just popped over from Youtube. Good to see you here. Just a question about when you leveled the tank, are you able to adjust the level once full of water? Surely the flooring may give a little with the extra water weight?. I don't know about this as only had small tanks. Look forward to following along with your build. Here and YouTube.

over here from YouTube, can't wait to see this tank and you get more and more set up. Will be following this thread on updates and learn a few things along the way too. Keep up the good work bud

Hey Nicholas nice to see you here man and great meeting you. As far as the leveling feet you cannot access the 2 center Ones so your best bet it to compensate by lifting the shorter one since you won’t be able to go lower.

Great seeing you here! We are happy to have you! I follow you on utube and I have no doubt that this will be an epic build! Btw, I think you'll be happy with the liferock as I set up a 120 a few months ago and along with a few pieces of live rock added, it was the fastest cycle ever.

Coming over from YouTube. What made you choose the Waterbox over Mode aquariums? How does the Waterbox stand compare to Mode?

 

[Nick Steele]

Glad to see you on here! Have seen many of your videos but don’t use YouTube much but I’m here everyday and will be excited to follow along for the ride!

Thanks very much for the warm welcome, honestly so far I am in love with LIFE rock. So easy to scape and it looks like mature rock. I’m looking forward to see how it cycles for sure.

Hello and thank for coming by. The choice was very Easy. I wanted a near 200g and mode doesn’t make it. WaterBox being so huge was a no brainer. The best thing that describes a WaterBox stand is WOW better than any of my furniture so surely beyond furniture grade.
