Sunstar Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Wonderful! another tank I can watch being born. Its wonderful to watch peoples experiences, good and bad. I am excited! 1 Quote Link to comment
outerorbiter Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 Ok cleared up nicely but had to move some sand. Also mismeasured the heater length and had to stick it in the display. Need a neotherm I guess or could stick it in one of the skimmers I've looked at. Quote Link to comment

spectra Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Yep I guess even with the bigger IMs the heaters do not fit......I have a neotherm as nothing else would fit the little 20..... Tank is looking good! What size sand is that? Quote Link to comment
outerorbiter Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 Anytime buddy.Is it this model? http://www.finnex.net/index.php/hmo-series/?___store=default Yep I guess even with the bigger IMs the heaters do not fit......I have a neotherm as nothing else would fit the little 20..... Tank is looking good! What size sand is that? The bag say 1.0-2.0 mmYep the heater isn't even close to fitting in the back and I guess being the lagoon doesn't help. My other IM 10 I had a neotherm from the start. 1 Quote Link to comment

outerorbiter Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 Almost perfectly clear! Have to find a container for my ato reservoir that fits in the stand. I had planned to just use a bucket but that's a no go. Scared to plug up the gyre after reading some more bad threads about them. Quote Link to comment
outerorbiter Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 Ok finally remembered to pee in the tank to get the cycle started. Just kidding I've been adding aquavitro seed and a little food. Decided to add a couple pounds of live rock as well to help out. Now the wait........ 2 Quote Link to comment
outerorbiter Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 Any one have tips on setting up the full Tunze Osmolator ATO? The manual seems to be lacking. Feels like Im pouring a gallon of water in it everyday. I bought a 10g standard aquarium and it fits perfect in the bottom of the stand for a reservoir. 1 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Looks good all cleared up! The scape works really well. Stocking plans? 1 Quote Link to comment
outerorbiter Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 Looks good all cleared up! The scape works really well. Stocking plans? Ive added a few pieces of live rock but not much. I seem to have more interest in lps and some gorgs. Maybe a monti or two and a green slimer cause the color is so vivid. Fish not sure besides clown of some type and a cryptic wrasse. 1 Quote Link to comment

Put the magnet/switch where you want the level to be ("eye" facing down and float switch facing up), put the pump in the container, and a its all set. Whenever you turn it off and on it will add water so make sure the water is below the "eye" first so it doesn't confuse it and set off the alarm. 1 Quote Link to comment
