CrazyInside Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) Well here is my new adventure, wanted to make a tank journal so I can track my progress. Thank you to Jeff at cuttlefish for the reefer package! Equipment: Reefer 350 Deluxe in White 2x Hydra HD 26 Nyos Quantum 160 Skimmer Finnex 500w Titainium Heater Apex Neptune System Tunze 3155 ATO Maxxspec Gyre f230 Ro/Di Unit MarinePure BioBlock Fritz Pro Salt I'm not a huge fan of a bunch of rock in the tank, so hopefully I don't have to many problems with less rock than normal. So far the tank has been up and running for about two weeks, no leaks so far. The Wiring is still a disaster, I'll clean it up eventually. Using Dry rock from reef cleaners, tropic eden mesoflakes and seeding the tank with a couple small live rocks.

Krux Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) I am so jealous of that extra cabinet space for equipment, I have like 3" of space in my 170. I like the minimal rock work myself, I am sure it will look great once populated. Following along, this or the XL425 will be my next upgrade, I just need to prove to my wife that this tank won't leak like the 30, 60, 75, and 150 did!

I was originally going to pick up at 250, but the cabinet space sold me on the 350! Thats a lot of leaking tanks, hopefully you have better luck with the reefers 2 hours ago, youcallmenny said: Whoa, what? Were those all red sea? Those all sound like conventional tank sizes, I think the 170 he currently has is the only Red Sea... at least for my sake I hope so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youcallmenny Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 That's true. That was also my reaction though! 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krux Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 In another era the plan was to take anything broken that someone else didn't want and make it work, usually it worked for a while, some projects never really lasted too long. Her pet rabbit gnawing through the spaflex return line I really don't blame myself for. That was the last day she had a pet rabbit... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
