Travis Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 Pod populations seem to have exploded in the tank. Right now, I'll bet there are a few hundred on the glass alone. What do you guys think this means in terms of my cycle? No diatoms anywhere, crystal clear water and no dead anything lol. Haven't lost a single member if my cuc. Link to comment
Travis Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Few updates... Finally got a work light over the sump. The light is a battery operated 1w single led with a detachable magnetic base. Basically I can use it as a fixture and as a hand held flash light. Also, we went a head and purchased a small occ. clownfish. Cute little guy, very healthy. I was able to get him to eat frozen mysis and pellet food. My kids named him Gussy Link to comment

Scorched Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Great Mr Aqua build! How are you liking the drain setup? Are you getting the flow you want/need with the 3/4" and airhole in the elbow? I went with 1" no airhole and have always wanted maybe just a little more draining power. Has the airhole sped up your draining speed? Link to comment

Has the airhole sped up your draining speed? It's sufficient for my needs, but if the tank was any bigger I would want it bigger. I don't have a drilled hole for the overflow, I use a threaded T and cap to regulate the airflow with a twist up or down. Last fts before corals! They are supposed to ship Thursday. Link to comment
Dnanoreefer Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I'm pretty pumped to see the coral in the tank. It looks good! I am a fan of the longer more shallow tanks. Pics when coral acclimate!! ? Link to comment
