Getting Excited
Getting ready to start my IM 25 gallon Lagoon Tank build. I know its not as exciting as some of the giant tanks you guys have, but i thought i would share. My equipment will be:
Upgrading pump to Tunze 1073.008 Smart Micro ATO Tune 9001 Comline Skimmer 30 lbs Live Rock that has been curing for about 3 months Kessil A360we with the Kessil controller InTank Media Baskets with Carbon, Purigen, and Filter Floss. Ill post pics as soon as I get in the mail. I took advantage of AquaCaves memorial day sale and decided to pull the trigger on this project. I currently have a 5.5 gal pico that has been doing so well, that i have to go bigger. Dont let anyone tell you that you can't have thriving SPS in a small tank! They are growing like weeds under a Kessil A80. More to come soon! |

Good think about the slash is people don't judge you how big or small your tank is or how good your equipment there are plenty of people here that just want your tank to be successful. My tank is small btw.

Did you ever setup your lagoon 25 with the smart ATO. IF you did, did you have to scrape off some of the black film for the optical sensor? Once again, if you did, how did you do it.
Thanks |
