I have finally been able to order all of the components for a tank that I have wanted for years. All of the equipment and such should be coming in over the next week. Will be posting pictures as things are set up.
That's great! Now the exciting part happens, you get to put it all together and wait
What kind of equipment did you buy?
That is my plan once the tank is cycled. Figured that the 40 would be enough until then plus I need the 8 weeks to save up again.Sounds like a really good list!
You might find that you want a vortech opposite your 40...... Possibly a mp10. They seem to work really well when positioned like that just slightly offset
Let the excitement begin!!
I like your choice on lots of things on your list....
Would like to see pictures as you progress with set up.
So please share
looks great bro!
I haven't worked it out yet. I plan on spreading it all out tomorrow and finding an arrangement that I like. That and painting the background on the tank are what I plan to have done by the end of the weekend.Have you worked on how you want your RockScape set up?
That macro dry rock is such an amazing looking specimen....
Can't wait to see what you do with it. Very exciting
For the short term I have some buckets to mix up the water once it is time to start filling. I plan on getting a couple of Brute containers in the next few weeks to hold fresh and salt water just to make things easy.Have you gotten a large RO-Di SW mixing container yet? And an extra pump fir mixing?
I use a Brute 30 gallon round w/lid that I bought at HomeDepot. Really wanted a white one but they didn't have white. Just so I could monitor it staying clean.
You might can just mix it in the tank since you aren't using live rock. Still you will need a container for WC after your tank cycles.
Just trying to think back to what I had to go get
Thanks Snelly I may take you up on that offer if things don't work out next weekend. I have a friend of mine coming to help (she's interested in saltwater too) and my fiance will be supervisor.If u need any help setting things up I happen to be in Charlotte as well, my work schedule is weird but sometimes a hand helps a ton
