The new set up is a 95g corner pent from Clarity Plus
we have a 45g sump/fuge in the basement below the tank
The filtration will be an ecosystems style fuge set up
right now I just have 65# of "partially cured" figi live rock
The tank will mainly be a softie tank
within the next week or 2 I sould have the lights and the fuge set up
Wish me luck !!

Good to see a softy tank, with some many people going SPS dominant or rare LPS (acans etc.).
Wish we had basments on the houses around here. Must make the setup options very nice.

I really like the basement option ! Our house is small and doing a waterchange on the nano cube involved moving furniture when it was in that corner. This will be soo much easier.

One safety note. :)
Mount the power strip on the wall above the level of the sump to keep water off of it.
It looks neater also :)
Back to the regularly scheduled program...

:D

not too sure yet the xenia from my nano will go in there eventually (it's out grown the nano) I'd like to try some of the leathers that grow too large for a nano also.

Not too much to report here but in order to avoid being whipped with a strand of Caulerpa I'll update a little ! I am still waiting on the lights! They should be in on Monday night. He was supposed to come by last Wed and last Friday but he broke his thumb. I did water tests last nite and Am, nitrite and nitrate are all zero!
