captainruiz Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 So this is hopefully a build that will last.. Breif intro: ive had a few nice tanks in the past, but due to a million +1 circumstances i have never been able to keep a reef aquarium more than 2 years. I had a son a few months ago and i thought i would be staying at my current location in the caribbean for years so i built a tank for him/us to enjoy but then 4 months later i knew it was best for us if we moved to the United States. So now that weve found a nice place where we can settle down ive decided to build a Nuvo Fusion 20. I decided on the 20 because imo its not too small and not big enough to let me spend all my money on coral lol Current equipment list: -IM fusion 20 -IM desktop ghost protein skimmer -IM filter sock inserts -Smart ATO -Apex jr -Vortech MP10 -3 BRS 1.1ml Dosing Pumps -6x24 ATI Sunpower Live stuff: 20lbs dry/live rock i collected 20lbs Eden mini flakes ...not an "exciting" build thread but i hope in time it will be worth looking at Thanks for reading and any suggestions will me apreciated!

FlowLikeWater Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Sounds good to me, any ideas for your stocking yet? Link to comment
captainruiz Posted February 13, 2016 Author Share Posted February 13, 2016 Are you refering to fish and coral? Forgot to mention the tank is not set up yet, im still missing a few odds and ends, and im figuring out exactly where i want to put it so i dont end up up having to move it later. There is a closet under the stairwell in the livingroom that might work out well if i put the tank in between maybe... so i can hide dosing pumps,ato, controller. Etc. better..hmmm Link to comment
