alex1237 Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 So I've been around for awhile (~6 months) and figured it's time to share my project and not just read everyone else's thread. I started with a 20h and a 20h sump in December '09. I quickly caught the bug and what follows has been my summer project. Equipment 24"x24"x21" rimless cube, opti-white glass, made by Reef Savvy out of Miami 6x24 ATI Sunpower 2x12" Reef Brite LED Strips (454 nm) 2x Koralia evolution 750 1x Koralia evolution nano (~400gph) 2x mp10w es Reef Octopus dnwb110 old 20h sump old 20h display as frag tank lowes irrigation sump as refugium (~25 gallons) ehiem 1262 return pump diy stand obscene ammount of pvc Livestock 2 x Occelaris 2 x Bangaii Cardinals 1 x Yellow Watchman Goby 1 x Chromis I realize this isn't so nano anymore, but this site has been my go to place for info and slacking off so it seems the right place to showcase my addiction.

alex1237 Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 Sorry gang I'm working on it. I just moved and set up the new tank. Problem is Cox hasn't hooked up my high speed yet and I'm tethered to my phone, so connection speeds leave something to be desired. I'll get something up before sleeping tonight, I promise.

That stinks! At least you got a new toy Yay Are you using equipment from your old tank? Like the PHs? Link to comment
Chimpo Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Looks good so far! Post some more pics! Where is ReefSavvy? I'm down in the MIA and always looking for a good LFS. Link to comment
alex1237 Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 I don't know that they have a store, I bought the tank at the Coral Farmer's Market in Orlando back in May. They didn't want to cart their display tanks home so I got a pretty good deal on it. Another picture until I can find my decent camera. Link to comment
