Dylan.N Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Cool, you got a thread going? I hate waiting....instant gratification kinda guy! I'll start a thread when I get some equipment in. Hopefully this Friday. No idea when the tank will be here yet. And I'm with you. I'm very impatient when it comes to shipping. EDIT: Ok, now Marine Depot says 4-6 weeks on their website for the tank. I hope that isn't true... Link to comment
lilmatty5dimes Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 oh man that sucks. y'all ever think about getting the low iron glass one? maybe call them up and see if they can maybe cut some of the shipping price off for the delay? figure worth a try at least http://www.marinedepot.com/Mr._Aqua_17.1_Gallon_Frameless_Low_Iron_Glass_Aquarium_Tank_23.6_x_11.8_x_14.2_Inch_Rectangular_Aquariums-Mr._Aqua-AZ11891-FIAQRA-vi.html Link to comment

I'm picking up my large zoa order tomorrow, and legendary is holding off due to weather conditions, so could be a bit before I see those Link to comment

kguske2 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Bummer on the LC delay. It will be well worth it! What are you picking up tomorrow? Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Bummer on the LC delay. It will be well worth it! What are you picking up tomorrow?About 19 'frags from my buddy zach at The Digital fishroom! He lives about twenty minutes away....his basement and upstairs is full of sweet a$$ coral....pretty excited. I'll post some pics. Some, I have in another tank....but I'm getting fresh picks for this tank. Capt.

zoohed Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Sooooo jealous of the z and p lists you keep throwing out. I can't wait to see the finished product. Link to comment

More too come, but I'll probably wait for the more spendy polyps till tank is up and going strong....not to say 20,40, 60 polyps can't be sexy! Link to comment
Horerczy Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Yeah I hate frag racks in my tank. I'm picking up my large zoa order tomorrow, and legendary is holding off due to weather conditions, so could be a bit before I see those Frag racks are quite distracting. I'm going to make half of my sump on my 40B a frag tank/Fuge for that very purpose. Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Frag racks are quite distracting. I'm going to make half of my sump on my 40B a frag tank/Fuge for that very purpose.A guy in my reef club did that in his 20L, and it worried great. My sump is only 10 gallons, but it should have enough room for a small rack....of course then I need more lighting. I just ordered my stand, woot woot! Dims are about 32x19x33", now I just need that darn tank that's on back order. I'll probably have the tank before the stand anyway.I've got some cool ideas going for my sump and plumbing...won't tell! I also decided to drill the tank instead of using the eshopps box Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 I wanted to build one, but it's friggin cold here and I have no garage space. Hopefully it's beefy and doesn't need reinforcing? Link to comment
Horerczy Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Eh if it needs reinforcing some 2x2s would be more than adequate for the task at hand. It's a very small tank. I keep a 29 gallon supported with 2x4s and that's overkill as it is. Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 Marine depot rocks! Sent a very nice email, for the tank being delayed. Great CS over there I also picked up some reef saver rock locally, with a store credit I had. I should have about 20lbs at my discretion for aquascaping. Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 Very nice!Good luck.Thank you.... Kinda a crap pic, but this is my 34 gallon that's basically four tanks in one now....the reason for so much rock, which used to be a more bonsai style appearance, oh well, soon to be upgraded to a 48x18x12. I know this isn't my new tank, but thought a pic would be nice I also picked up zoa/paly's from zach today, I'll try and get pics up later....most are open already.....ordering another rack today, the home made rack is kinda weak with only one mag!
