Matteo Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Just ordered the JBJ 45 gallon AIO aquarium on Marinedepot using their 15% off coupon code! After seeing the price of the stand and reviews of the stand I am going to build a stand of my own to my own liking. Everything (almost) will be transferred into this tank from my 29g Biocube. In the stand: TLF 150 Biopellet Reactor BRS Carbon and GFO Reactor American DJ Power strip 5 Gallon Bucket RO/DI Water Tunze Nano Osmolator DIY LED Controller/Power Box In the back chamber: Filter Sponge/Floss Refugium in one of the sides with cheato and live rock Heater ATO Hose Reactor Plumbing and pumps AqauticLife 115 Skimmer, (need to upgrade) Lighting: 2 x Lumia 5.2 LED pucks w/storm controller(dislike bluefish) on rapid led's premium black 6inch heatsink. In the DT: 35ish lbs of live rock SPS,LPS, Softies, Nems, and NPS 1 Baby Goldstripe Maroon Clown 1 Pair of Proaquatix Snowflake Clowns 1 Royal Gramma (might get rid of, always hides in rock) 1 Mandrian Dragonet CUC/Cleaner Shrimp Have Jebao WP10 but probably will upgrade to mp10 soonish. Wanted Fish: (All up in the air) Lepoard Wrasse (potters wrasse died recently ) I love Flame Angels but nervous about coral picking Maybe a pair of cardinals First thing to do is hit hardware store and get the stand built. Then everything else will fall into place piece by piece! Link to comment
fishfreak0114 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 I would try a flame angel out and if it is a nipper you could just return it to the store. It really depends on the fish, mine doesn't touch my corals. If you keep it well fed is less likely to eat your coral. Great fish, lots of personality and gorgeous!? Link to comment

Matteo Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 I would try a flame angel out and if it is a nipper you could just return it to the store. It really depends on the fish, mine doesn't touch my corals. If you keep it well fed is less likely to eat your coral. Great fish, lots of personality and gorgeous! That is what I am thinking! I love my maroon clown because he always in the nem. The snowflakes don't give a s***. I might just start with all new fish. Probably will keep the mandrian (we'll see). Either the maroon clown or the snowflake clowns will go. Maroon clown is in the nem which is fun but I love the look of snowflakes so that will be decided soonish. I think I will do this: Carpenters Fairy Wrasse Leopard Wrasse Flame Angel Maroon Clown or Pair of Snowflakes Mandrian (we'll see) I just want active swimmers that swim the whole tank!

Matteo Posted July 31, 2015 Author Share Posted July 31, 2015 Here is the build! Currently the light is temporary as I am waiting on a new black heatsink and also have to wait for drivers for my two new Lumia 5.2 pucks. Monday I will be receiving a MP10QD and desktop reactor thanks to harryjsinger! Current fish in the tank is my goldstripe maroon clown (Bruce) who is my king of the tank. Hopefully getting a flame angel soon because I have always wanted one! Question though, I am currently running GFO/Carbon in the brs reactors and have a fuge section with cheato. So with the new desktop reactor I plan on running bio pellets (scary I know) any thoughts? Any other media I should tumble? here are the pics https://www.flickr.com/photos/134859105@N04/ Link to comment

Matteo Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 I have been in Death Valley California for 3 weeks so I am not sure. My roomie said everything is alive. Waiting for a pic... Link to comment
