The 480 lives

[scchase]

Move 300#s of cured live rock from one tank 30 feet away into another

 

[Tangs]

I had my 180 sump cycling to help my time on my 300 gallon while I built it . It still took 4 months. Total water I had 500

Wondering how the cycle will be fast

[scchase]

and for our newer members a pic in its former glory

 

[CRW Reef]

Ah and what glory it was!! Excited to see that one and the super big bad boy rocking soon!!!

 

[Dr.DiSilicate]

lol. The 480 is the small tank!

 

[Tangs]

Where is the tank located ,is it in the garage or are u building into a wall

 

[scchase]

Basement being built into a wall so the 2x4s you see are both structural for the tank and future support for the wall

 

[BrianH]

Looks good! Are you going to have that plumbed into your big (1200 gal?) tank when it is up and running or are they going to be independent systems?

 

[scchase]

Those too will be separate and for the other good news as soon as I finish framing I can start on the 1200 again

My new toy, now all I have to do is get it all set up

 

[scchase]

And some updated photos, aiptasia is going fast with a Copperband and a filefish making quick work of it, should be gone in the next two weeks, only got so bad with nothing in the tank for a couple months. Crappy phone pics since I can't seem to find my camera. Other than that have another 6 fish in TTM to be added in two weeks and Acros are all coloring up/holding color nicely and starting to grow well.

Looking good! Looks like some manual caulerpa removal is coming soon.


How do you like the Archon?

 

[scchase]

Heh that is only about 1/8 of the caulerpa that was in there the tangs have been mowing through it like crazy. Other than getting the Archon to connect to my router I have loved it so far, and that is more a problem with my router than the Archon, had to change firewall settings to get it to work.
