The ReefBox Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 So finally did some rock scaping but corals are all still just thrown around till next days off but here are a few shots of what I am working with now,mand it's super quiet. The loudest thing in the tank is the hammerhead pumps humming noise. Well here's one overall. Photobucket froze on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ReefBox Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 It has OR Arctiv T 247, and oddly enough I am removing a bunch of the finals and going mostly designer stuff yes Brad that means I will need to come see you. The stand was built and painted by me. Tank and sump built by Charles and overflow ideas courtesy Stylaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ReefBox Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Anyone who questions the Rw-15 from Jebao is crazy. These things are no joke and literally can cause a tidal wave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The ReefBox Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Pretty clean set up! Like the finish on the stand. Thanks, I was looking for something different and kinda distressed and vintage so that's what I came up. Three layers of different paint, sanded through to expose under colors then coated with an ebony stain that was applied and wiped off after it tacked up a little.

vanz Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 nice! The stand work looks great. There should be a Cube Club here, there's a lot of us now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 That looks awesome Brian! How in the world were you able to break down and transfer with such large colonies? That's my biggest fear of upgrading or transferring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The ReefBox Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Well bill without help of Stylaster and Gumby it would not have went so smooth. It took 6 hours we started at 7 and finished at 1 am which was a work day for both of them. It took 4 55 gallon drums 23 five gallon buckets and two coolers filling a truck,12 foot trailer and two cars to get everything here. The colonies popped off for most part and what didn't we moved on the rocks as they sat. I learned a lot from last BIG tank and have designed the new tank around those short falls. This tank will only feature stuff I really want and or like. It won't be your typical large fish, tang dominated tank ask think the SPS are always retracted when they are in and out of the corals and making frags. Instead I will focus on speciality higher end fish with purpose. The SPS. Will only be choice pieces and placed accordingly to enjoy, prune and prosper. LPS will be few but choice pieces! Zoas will be isolated so they don't overgrow my nice stuff. And there will be death to those large hairy green shrooms, aphasia and Monjanos as I can. And lastly this tank is super quiet unlike the washing machine sound of my other tank. So I I am still discarding corals and broke up some of the large colony's so I can start with fresh healthy stuff. I will be hitting you, Brad, Danik, Stylaster and a few others up shortly to start the reef garden up with choice stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
