I've started to accumulate some of the other things I'll need. The tank will be mostly SPS.
Here's a pic of the style of stand that I've got being built. This one is either 3 or 4 feet and my 210 will be 6 feet long and have 4 doors, but you can see the general design.
I picked up a Vertex 170 skimmer...
I've got two MP40's on my 185 that I'll be pulling out in place of a couple of Tunze 6055's. I'll be keeping primarily LPS in the 185 and primarily SPS in the 210. I picked up an additional MP40 ES and ES upgrade kits for the two MP40s I already have. I'll be placing one on each end and one on the back wall.
I also picked up a BRS Dual Reactor to run carbon and GFO.
That's it for now. The tank and stand should be ready this week. I'll be working on building additional rock structures this week if I can and am trying to decide if I'll reuse an old AC Junior I have or if I'll get an Apex (leaning towards the latter
).
I'll keep this updated as I progress.
