So, its been a while since I've had my hands in a tank. Some of you remember when I lost my spa to God knows what a while ago. I managed to save a chunk of livestock and ended up selling it on the cheap... I still see some of the corals on the FS forums floating around... makes me happy that my pets are still doing good!
I recently finished the basement floor where my man cave will be. Its a big room with a closet, right next to a bathroom and water supply so ... YEA!
In january we will hire someone to come in and finish the framing of the whole area and put in a drop ceiling. That means the area will be done!
really the ONLY thing I NEED is a tank. I'll make my own sump to fit exactly what I want (as i've always done). I'm looking for 48 long and 24 front to back. The height is negotiable... MUST be glass rimless
I still have:
Bubbleking Mini 200
Turbo Charged t5 system with VUE660 ballasts
All the reactors and pumps
Only a few more weeks and I'll be looking for livestock! SWEEET.
One other interesting aspect of this tank will be that it isn't on the main floor, so I won't be hands on as much. I'm wondering what effect this will have on it. POTENTIALLY it could be a great thing. I can use my APEX to shoot my information to a device upstairs so I can maintain parameters. I've learned that once you get things set... to LEAVE them that way and stop tinkering if you want a reef. Hopefully this will help.
I'll also be grabbing a few dehumidifiers for down there and a good heater.
what? whats that? what livestock? DRRRRRRRR... SPS all the way to the glass of course. I'm looking forward to it... can you tell...!!!?
