Cam barr Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 ez any updates any design issues Link to comment
ezcompany Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 Thanks for the comments guys. Rene- tank comes with a glass cover that fits perfectly on plastic hinges you can place on the rim nanoclown & stoney- wipe the drool the show isn't over hopkins- dimensions are a perfect cube 20^3 there is ample room in the back for additional filtration media/rocks however not as much if you want to keep the recommended water level marvin- fish is swimming and trying to accept flakes now as it was spoiled on mysis. i'll try to get pics as he's not too shy of me will a female really help with colors or is that just a sales pitch? fatex9- thats the msrp from Current USA released nationwide so you got a fair deal cambarr- one design issue, the stock filter padding gets clogged (like all manual filtration does). the one that can be an issue is the one in the intake, as this changes the water level of the back chambers affecting protein skimmer performance. ---------------------------- I did some work on the tank, I got around installing a 1/10th chiller. I was lazy to start a siphon so I just stuck a Hydory L35 pump in the 3rd chamber. The temps was 87 degrees, and i brought it down to 79. i'm guessing i have too many pumps in there (5) and the weather has been very warm as of late. Water level is a major issue in the back chambers, I removed all stock mechanical filtration and decided to use one pad of 100 micron filter floss to keep things clean back there. all bio balls were removed, from skimmer also. The filter floss does a good job of catching all the microbubbles from the skimmer the balls aren't needed in the skimmer. Tunze osmolator was installed in the back to keep the water levels steady. On another note i fragged off a coral accidentally while cleaning the glass Link to comment
FateX9 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 have you thought about using a sump? thats what im doing to his tank i figured a sump will stablize the back chambers so there isnt much fluctuation in water height so the skimmer would work properly we're gunna get the bottom drilled, 2 holes one in the middle and one in the return pump area the thing i like about the back chamber of this tank is its large enough to drill im also goign to put in a scwd and take out the loc line the return pump is going to be a quiet one 4000 so far thats the "plan" but what ive learned in planning new tanks is that things always end up changing i would LOVE to have a tank go the way i want but something ALWAYS happens looks like hes going to be going with a 20" sunpod 150w mh, my lfs is only selling them for 230 which i think is an awesome price, especially for an lfs Link to comment
wiszmaster Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 This tank will eb released w/out the ALL IN ONE features ... so just a rimless glass tan - that would be worth drilling for a standpipe, or build your own overflow in there. Ours here has been running hot as well, 85-86 on average for the past few days. about to get a fan assembly 2 or 4 fans to clip ont he back to blow over the surface - only problem then will be the evaporation - as of right now, we go through both bottle in less than a day. I can fill them up in the AM, and when i get home, they will be empty, or very close to. Link to comment
MarvinsReef Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 marvin- fish is swimming and trying to accept flakes now as it was spoiled on mysis. i'll try to get pics as he's not too shy of me will a female really help with colors or is that just a sales pitch? EZ, man.... if you can get a trio (1 male & 2 females) that'll be so cool to see... yeah, coloration will be better when fairy wrasses have a few females they can flash... Link to comment
adinsxq Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 still alive! coloring up? Link to comment
chrisdamage Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 any outstanding cons yet? The gf is drooling over this tank so I'm sure I will end up with it one way or the other. Link to comment
Rene Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 What a neat fish. I'm glad the solana has a hood...I didn't read too well and was worried you were somehow putting this thing in a topless tank even though common sense told me you knew way better than that. Link to comment
ezcompany Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 ugh....i have AEFWs.......UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Link to comment
