Well, I am finally committing to the planning process since im almost ready to make the plunge into a FULL Reef setup.
This will likely include just LPS and softies, but i guess i'll judge other stuff later based on lighting and stability.
I just sold my old 65Long FW so i can start moving forward now.
The jump in price from 65 to 90g is about $100, and Ive decided I'll not get greedy now that im in the home stretch .
The 65g tank will be 36x18x24H and i think there will be room underneath for at least a 20g sump.
Part of that 20g will be Fuge, and definately going with an ATO. Very Much looking forward to hiding all my equipment out of the DT.
The plan right now is to drill the back and go with a BeanAnimal Overflow, Im going to use my Eheim Canister for return duties.
Im going to finish my 2nd revision of my WF ATS and hang on the sump.
Once the old tank is out, i plan to add a 20amp dedicated line for the tank straight from the panel, also an RO Line through my crawl for the ATO.
The first and most complex project on the agenda is a DIY LED fixture, i think ive got the design done in my head, just need to start sketching.
I do still need to find the operating temp for a 3 and 5w LED @ 80percent so i can plan cooling.i
Seems like right now i probably will order from ReefLEDLights but not the whole kit because i will be using different heat sinks.
The contents of my current 40tall are going in this with an extra 50 lbs of sand, and probably 30 lbs of LR.
Fish will go to QT until i get everything cleared up and rocks glued together.
Any suggestions are more than welcome ! More Details to follow !
