StevieT Posted October 2, 2015 Author Share Posted October 2, 2015 What's the plan? Water, very wet water Link to comment
MrNanoReef Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 sweet setup! Any plan for lighting? Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Water, very wet water Damn... I thought this was going to be a blow display tank Link to comment
StevieT Posted October 2, 2015 Author Share Posted October 2, 2015 Raidon XR30 PRO Prob do real reef rock or my buddy up in Green Bay The Alternative Reef. Have most of the equipment already, anything need is just in the warehouse or can trade for goods which is cool. I'm trying not to spend too much on this setup but this lagoon style has so much potential. Debating a volcano or some mangroves. Def. want my ricordia island back, I miss it from my RSM. Plus shipping Jeff is now tasked with water changes, so it should actually do pretty well sweet setup! Any plan for lighting? Link to comment
Fnard Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Shipping Jeff should take some pointers. Now that's how to pack! Link to comment
Pinner Reef Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Nice choice of a system. Try not to let the monti take this one over Link to comment
DC5 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 What makes a tank a lagoon tank? Link to comment
StevieT Posted October 2, 2015 Author Share Posted October 2, 2015 What makes a tank a lagoon tank? Depth Nice choice of a system. Try not to let the monti take this one over It's going to have plenty of room in this bad boy. I found a local LFS that is willing to trade for it, so that should get me plenty of the livestock needed. Plus they are selling a few of our baskets, Shipping Jeff should take some pointers. Now that's how to pack! Someday he's going to have to learn how to pack freight....... scary scary day that will be Link to comment
spectra Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 That is one sweet tank! I wanted to go with one also but ended up going with a sump as I just can not get past the AIO tanks. Love my Fusion 20 but tired of cleaning out the back chambers.....I know you have shipping Jeff for that Looking forward to see what happens with it. Link to comment
WhiteWulfe Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Man that is a gorgeous tank, and a rather tempting one to look into. Guessing the display depth is just shy of 20" or so? Link to comment
plainrt Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Is the lfs best fish? Not sure if been there or not. Link to comment
StevieT Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Man that is a gorgeous tank, and a rather tempting one to look into. Guessing the display depth is just shy of 20" or so?Correct just about 20"Is the lfs best fish? Not sure if been there or not.Tropical Fish. Just found these guys and there only a few miles from me. Drove past them a million times but it's a weird location. And I tend to stay out of LFS but these guys knew who inTank was so we're going to do some biz. I need to make a trip to best fish to see what's up. Link to comment
Proudgeek Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Looks very nice. Glad you are happy with the preassembled stand. I wasn't as lucky with mine - for the 25g. Link to comment
reefernanoman Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Nice, very nice. Make sure to only use wet water! Link to comment
StevieT Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Looks very nice. Glad you are happy with the preassembled stand. I wasn't as lucky with mine - for the 25g. Are they all coming preassembled? There are a few things I don't like but I can fix. It's got a little scuff on one side but I knew that before, IM hooked us up. Link to comment
Obsessed Reefer Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 My thoughts when I saw this thread! Link to comment

It's got a little scuff on one side but I knew that before, IM hooked us up. Only the 50g stands come preassembled. I am not as happy as you. Link to comment
