Took a break from the hobby for a couple of years. Starting a tank back up probably going to be going in the SPS direction. Well got my tank today after it has been back ordered for the last month then I got it and the stand was busted up so I had to wait for a new stand. But it's here

Nice tank! What lighting / powerheads to you plan on running?

ckranz · 07/13/2015, 09:18 PM

I'm going to be hanging a reefbreeder. Power heads are two Mp10's ,skimmer is Aquamaxx Hob.

Small update
Sand, water, MP10, light and skimmer installed. Tomorrow I will hang the light from the ceiling and hook up the ATO.

Im very torn on if I want this tank or bigger

ckranz · 07/15/2015, 07:39 AM

Bigger tank more work more money ect... But smaller fish with a smaller tank. So it's a give and tank.

Nice tank. I went with the 30 gallon version. Similar LED (OceanRevive) and just installed 1 MP10 which should be plenty for the 30 gallon. Very solid tank and can't beat the look of rimless. Just about ready for corals. Good luck in your build.

A little update! iPhone not taking very good pictures. But got my rock and sand in.

Hows this tank coming along?

ckranz · 08/04/2015, 08:15 PM

Not much to update on. Tank is just about ready to start stocking. Probably going to get some more fish this weekend and maybe a few corals.
