Just a heads up. I see you have a Neo therm heater in the last pics and listed a 200w cobalt in the equipment list. Cobalt stopped making the 200w bc of quality issues. Several exploded, mine shorted out and shocke me when I put my hand in the tank. They are supposed to release the new ones sometime this fall

 

I'm sorry for raining on your thread parade. The setup looks awesome. Keep the updates coming

Thanks for the heads up. I will be now changing it out! Yikes.

That is my old clam. My love. Going on six years old. That is my holding tank. Much easier to battle the bryopsis and keeping it BB. Its on! I will take a few more of the tank.

I see a clam. I demand moar pictures.

 

Only the 6020. However very limited and I was one of the first. Check out Aqua Cave.

so after seeing this 6020 powerhead i really want one. did a quick search but...is it not available for purchase yet?

 

Thanks man. I would love to have 5-6 more tanks on the same grid too. However the money and time. I originally wanted to do a plumbed system but the amount the hardware and pipes would ruin the look. That is why I am sticking with the AIO.

Dave,

You have taken a dream of mine and made it a reality. A wall a nano displays. Only two things I would change is plumbing them all into one big system, and the other is putting it in my living room instead of yours....

 

Looks amazing, Can't wait to see this once its all wet inside....

Yes, true in my design all pipes run in the wall to a closet on the opposite side of the wall... On a shelving system like that, AIO is the way to go.

Sad day for me :( My dwarf moray eel decided to escape the holding tank early this morning. I was up early working and everything was fine. Go out to the shop to build a few units and come back to find the guy on the floor. Placed him back in the water and was "breathing" but I think he was out to long. I had the little guy for four years! ARGH!

 

RIP!

 

The fresh water tank is running and is all set. Going to try and get the other 5G softy tank running tomorrow night. Then 20G this week. Pictures soon!

I've let the tank sit around with the same water since the start. Water change this weekend and cleaning up from the algae. Corals are reacting great. I have been running the lights on a different light schedule that has had a great response. Due to time I am hang to hold off on the second SW tank. Any who, photos.
