210 Tang Reef

[mphammer]

Back to the woodshop for some more building.
I am embarrassed that is has taken this long... but better late than never. Finally started the canopy and skinning for the stand!

Canopy finished. What a difference it makes in the room not having the spillover blue light!

Looks Great!

Quick update- after losing just about everything in January, finally starting to see color in my tank again. I had a couple pieces pull through including these acans..


Still not sure what happened, just hope I am past it

Well all, I have decided to take a little break and downsize so I figured I should create one last post before the 210 goes offline.
I have some exciting opportunities that have taken priority and unfortunately I just do not have the time for the large tank.

Thanks to all who helped out as well! I learned a great deal of valuable information during the quick journey. I will miss it, but I will be back eventually!

I know how that is. Good luck with the new adventures. What are you downsizing to?

Good luck man... I barely have time for this reef hobby as well with my recent job change, so I know that feeling.

That is something I am struggling with. I am thinking 60-80 gallons. I just don't want to end up downsizing just to find out it requires the same amount of energy/time when it comes to maintenance.

I've often wondered where the line was for that...I've been contemplating upgrading from the Nuvo40 but don't really want any more additional work.

For me, it's a 50 gallon AIO. No sump to deal with just an ATO container. Water changes take 10 minutes and less footprint to maintain than the 6 foot tank i used to have. I started to expand with the lowboy but i don't want another tank to maintain as i search for new work opportunities. And with WFH likely coming to an end soon i just want one tank.

So sorry to hear that Mike, the build was awesome but I get that life takes over
Good luck on the new opportunities and the smaller build!
