Nice setup up, the are left of your sump might be a perfect place for a refuge tank drilled and connected to your sump. Kickass setup though!

That looks really cool. I love the scallop. What is the thing on the glass to the right?

Follow suit!!

All For Fish in Albany is pretty sweet. Prices are pretty good. Went there with less than 100 dollars in mind and ended up spending 300. I can't go to Animal House in Corvallis anymore, I refuse, so this is the next closest stop. Owner is killer nice there.

I need to get up there and check it out, hear only great things.

Question: The display fuge just has water pumping through it at the moment, when do I want to add the DSB to it? I'm only on week 2 of cycling.

Slow and steady. Measure twice, cut once kind of philosophy is the best.

She gives great rock, the ones I got from Ladiebuggy had a lot of little live critters and good coraline growth. A snail even survived!!

Hope it is not a DSB!!

Innovative I love money saving things like this, thanks for sharing.

You're reefing obsession is paramount here!! Nice set up yo! One day I would love to check it out.

Oh I forgot to mention that I am doing this all on a budget of less then 1000 dollars, only up to 650 now!!

6500 or 10k? Also would I get two daylight or one and one actinic?

Welcome, good size tank. Do you have experience in reefing already?

Finished up my display fuge's stand to match the other stand. Yaa!! QT fits nicely under the Fuge. Hey what kind of lighting is good for a Display fuge that will have a lot of different types of algae?

This fish is on my eventual wish list, how long have you waited? What is a typical waiting period?

Black Occellaris Clowns

Oh ya the lighting 250 hqi mh, 2 t5 ho actinics, 8 leds. The ballast is shot though.

Thanks, the display fuge's stand is unfinished, so I just stuck the quarantine tank under there till I finish the stand. I think I might put a door there and put the QT there in the end lol. Ya the Closed loop has a snapper reeflo on it, 3000 gallon, it has some nasty output, but I have it branched 4 ways and several mechanisms to knock it down a lot.

Sweet, welcome

So I've finally started just putting everything together after months of collecting. I am yet to add the canopy over the light fixture I got for 50$. I still have a while to go until it is where I want it, but I need suggestions so here goes. My son is checking out the action. Cords aren't organized, but man this hobby is intense. Any suggestions? My lil turtle. I made the tank myself. He is awesome. So thats what I've go so far. It is cycling with some live rock I got from a member here, and I still need some more sand for the fuge. I am hoping I get some comments on what to do to improve this set up, I love constructive criticism.

Wish I would have done a tank like this instead of the 40b. Great price yo.

That is a lame apartment rule. If anything, it should require renters insurance on 30+ tanks.

Welcome to Orygon.

Word, welcome back to the hobby and welcome here.
