the_gats Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 Alright so after a running a while I noticed on more leak, but it is just a 1 drop per hour kinda of thing. Unfortunately it still needs fixed, but should be an easy one. Just need to retape some threads and hopefully it will be fixed. Unfortunately I have to wait another week until I start my new job so the MP10 and base rock will have to wait a little longer. Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Good to hear, looks like its going to be fun. Have you unplugged everything to see how much water goes into the sump in a power loss? you may need to build some sort of rack for your skimmer to sit on if you are running that water level.

Gunbeaux Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Currently I have a ~1.5 inch sand bed. Is there a minimum for pistol shrimp/YWG? Thanks. I have a Tiger pistol and a ywg in one of my tanks and the shrimp arrages the sand to the depth it wants. every few days it changes the landscape. Link to comment

Have you unplugged everything to see how much water goes into the sump in a power loss? you may need to build some sort of rack for your skimmer to sit on if you are running that water level. Yea I have unplugged everything and it stops about a 1/4 inch from the rim of the that sump. I also had thought about having to build a rack for the skimmer which isnt a problem I've got 4 feet of 1 1/2in pvc and some acrylic left I figured I could use that to lift it. Tonight I got my last leak fixed (not enough tape on the threads. Tomorrow I will hopefully finish my light hanger and Saturday i should be draning and moving to the apt. After that is waiting to get the rock sand and mp10. Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Getting close huh? Did you order the mp-10 yet? I want to see pictures of the 20 damnit!!!!! Link to comment
the_gats Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 Getting close huh? Did you order the mp-10 yet? I want to see pictures of the 20 damnit!!!!! No I haven't ordered it yet. I haven't worked since the end of Dec. so the funds are short. Hopefully next week it will be ordered. I did get a Ora Red Planet frag today and will hopefully be getting Birds of paradise frag California tort frag, and a Bali Tricolor frag next week from someone local. All $10 a frag. And here are a few pics. A bunch of Zoas The One head is splitting Two possibly three rics are seem to be splitting Red Planet (Mostly green polyps arent all out yet.) All these zoas have grown from the frag I had onto the rock. The frag fell off so these are all new in the last 3 months FTS Edit: I also will not be adding any of the xenia to the 40 Link to comment

the_gats Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Sounds like a plan. I might have to go pick it up after I get my MP10 and first pay check. I really can't wait to finish this build. It's taken way to long. Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Felt like mine took forever too, but like they say .....only bad things happen fast. Link to comment
the_gats Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Felt like mine took forever too, but like they say .....only bad things happen fast. Yea I suppose. I'm Just glad all the plumbing works and it's fairly quiet. You can't hear it over the tv at regular volume so thats good. I was a little worried I would have to much flow in my fuge to really do anything but I think having the return on the same side as the drain it allows for some varied flow through the sump.
