This is my first build thread, I've had many many tanks and setups over the years, but this one I think deserves its own thread. It will be an on going process so I'll keep everything updated here. I've always been into FOWLRs and over the last 2 years started getting into reefs. This tank is going to be a mixed reef, haven't decided if I want any SPS yet, I really don't like the expensive twigs, plus I love the movement of softies and LPS, especially how hardy they are. Here is the list of equipment I am starting with:
120g dual RR tank (4'x2'x2')
50g sump w/refugium (36"x18"x18")
10g for top off w/ JBJ ATO
OceanRunner 3500 return pump
Tek T5 6 bulb setup
Octopus NW 200 skimmer (have mods for it if needed)
two lil fishies phos reactor
Koralia 2 powerheads (2)
Koralia 1 powerheads (2)
Koralia nano powerheads (2)
I got the stand built last night using the 2x4 and the template here on RC. I hope to get the tank cleaned and put up tonight, along with adding sand and some new water to get rid of the cloudiness. I will be getting water changes from other tanks to speed up the cycle process. Thanks for looking and hopefully this build will move pretty quick!
