TUDIZZLE Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Looking good! Need to put your build on the reading todo list as well....plus Vodka dosing! I got some work ahead of me I see. Link to comment
divecj5 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 What is the up and coming "build" going to be? Link to comment
TUDIZZLE Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 What is the up and coming "build" going to be? The 110 gal AIO? Something like building 2 false walls angled in the back corners. With fuge on one side and filtration stuff on the other side. All the pumps/heaters would be hidden back there too. Still in the works but I was given the tank and stand for free so I just gotta do something with it!?! Thinking rock islands on each end, its a 6ft tank. Maybe bare bottom. Crazy idea of sand glued to the bottom then growing a carpet of zoas. I have these ones that multiply like wildfire, so maybe? Oh so many options..... it was a used FW tank so it needs a good scrubbin and the stand and tank need painting...definetly a project tank! Link to comment
divecj5 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Sounds like you have one of the biggest expenses out of the way, the tank and stand. All of your ideas sounds great....Kmitch I believe is trying to do something similar with the bottom by gluing/epoxying sand to starboard. Depending on how these turn out, I may have to consider it on a future tank (no time soon!!). Link to comment
spanko Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Not a nano..........................FAIL!!!!!!! Link to comment
TUDIZZLE Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Not a nano..........................FAIL!!!!!!! At least it will be an AIO. How about dividing it into 4 quadrants with completly different corals in each zone. 4 nanos in one? All could have their own lighting and then I could have the lighting schedule off set so I would always have 1-2 with the lights on. Link to comment

TUDIZZLE Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Having trouble finding my good camera so I just grabbed a few with my daughters..at least you can get the general idea how things are looking. Link to comment
spanko Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 A quad nano!!!!!! Great idea!!!!! Is it up yet? Link to comment
divecj5 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Still looking really good man. Every once in a while I'll look at my tank and miss my BC....then again, a new tank brings new challenges, experiences, and things to learn so it's been fun having something different to work with.

TUDIZZLE Posted September 16, 2009 Author Share Posted September 16, 2009 I know I need that new tank excitement! Picked up some pink zoas...will post some pics once they settle Link to comment
Cali-girl Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hey Tud! Long Time no talk! How's the tank coming? and did i read correctly, you're switching the cube over to a 110 AIO? jk, I'm sure it will be fantastic! Hope everything is going well over there and glad to see at least as of Sept. the tank is doing well if you are planning on fragging anything again let me know, i'd love to give those yellow polyps another go and the ricordias you have look great! The zoas you sent over to me are the kings of the tank. They grow like crazy! I've already paid it forward and given out a few of the frags to some friends. anyway, Have a happy holiday with you and your family! Link to comment
