Can I get a couple if they survive?lol

Correct me if im wrong, is that upside-down? Lol sweet frame,what size tank?

Sump diy update .just going with a 10g and a reactor refugium. Debating on plumbing another tank like a 5.5 or another 10g as a emergency overflow tank for the sump area.

No. You'll have trouble with chlorine. Chlorine takes a while to get out of the system, there is conditioners but I wouldn't trust it.

OMGEEEEEEEE LOL IM HELLA BROKE ATM

I have a nice size frag of photosynthetic purple brush gorgonian. In Vancouver wa near the mall. Pm me. Its flesh is purple and has brown polyps

Yes its definitely possible, maybe try adding a uv light, or dose a small amount of hydrogen peroxide. That should kill any bacteria or algae along with a good scrub

Whats your tds from your ro water? Don't have a deionizer to make it minimal tds? Also cover it and allow no light may help and a powerhead for flow. Hope that helps.

Yea its pretty simple,use your phone on a white screen and hold it on the inside of the pane,turn polarized glasses till you see waves=tempered. No waves means you can drill. I've also did it with a laptop inside the tank.still coming along and cycling. Butter clams to help filter out the OD of ammonia. When or if they dies they with be diy fish cubes.theyve lived 2 days now 😆 🤣

Yea plumbing is going to be a pain,only tank that fits that I have on hand us a 10 gallon for this cabinet, ill make a decision next week on how and what I want,pump comes in Saturday.

That background is 🔥 what color.is that and which paint? I might have to do that on my 65 petco build or even 2 of my 40 breeder builds I havent gotten to yet.nice work and keep it up!

Yea I know,thats the downside to the 55 gallon tanks they're just to narrow,i managed to get about a half inches between the glass and the some of the arches that get close to the glass,ill have to get a lo profile magnet cleaner.but itll look better if I do put corals in it,I hope to just have it as a FOWLR setup but ill see how long that lasts lol

Lol please close

please close thread,ended up building it for my living room

Still have the bulbs? I also have to frags for trade, purple brush gorgonian, splatter hammer and some home brewing phytoplankton. Im in Vancouver and it not much of a drive if I dodge the traffic lol

@SuncrestReefis the apex going to do the BBQing?lol

Yea I think imma just run it on 2 canister to start the cycling and until I get the plumbing and parts figured out. Plumbing could definitely be a painful process lol especially if you glue bond them to soon. 90° looks nice but I've ran into alot of gurgling so I've switched to 45°s from past experiences lol. Also valves are necessary for fine tuning, gate valves are nice but cost a pretty penny. Ball valves will get the job done but could be a pain to open and close,but honestly why would you keep messing with the adjustments lol I tell myself that everytime I adjust my flow which is randomly 😆

Part it out! Lol nice pieces forsure. What skimmers are they?

55 FOWLR setup Used: 55 gallon,stand and canopy So I was planning on plumbing and drilling but after testing glass will polarized glasses I found that every pane is tempered 😖 i dont want to do a hang on overflow box because I've heard of all the accident that they do and I really don't want to run a air pump. I do have canister filters but want the sump so I'm thinking about doing the "DIY kings pvc overflow " so I can run a sump and also doing the updated version with the weir. And another thing I need to decide is if I should split the return to DT to have 2 returns and 1 drain to sump. Maybe have it all centered on back wall and return heads pointing towards bottom mid corners. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance

I'll get another picture tomorrow. Thx for the help!

Can't remember the name of these zoas. There's 2 different kinds on this plug.thanks in advance.
