Hello Reef2Reef!
For awhile now I have had the itch for a planted tank in my office, over the past few months I have slowly traded for and collected equipment that would be useful for such a thing, after acquiring a tank for the project I have decided to go for it, but with a slight twist.
In the pursuit of trying new and different things I have decided on making a remote mangrove tree tank connected to my SPS display located roughly 20 feet away from my office.
The tank: Waterbox 40 Frag tank.
The lighting: Kessil A360X Tuna Sun with 35degree narrow reflector.
The Equipment: Neptune Dos, Neptune FMM, 2x optical sensors.
The concept:
The plan is to use a Neptune DOS to do a "water change" between the tanks, with the thought process of keeping the systems linked to gain the benefit of more water volume and using the mangrove tank with a substrate of miracle mud to act as another form of natural filtration while also being aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
If you would like to follow my 150G SPS Peninsula tank you can find it here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/wds-150g-sps-peninsula.692263/
Cheers everyone!
