iball1804 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Don't you love builds where you already have 90% of the equipment? At least I do. And, you won't much of a cycle, if any with your existing bacteria. Are you gonna keep the same scape? Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 9, 2011 Author Share Posted November 9, 2011 Don't you love builds where you already have 90% of the equipment? At least I do. And, you won't much of a cycle, if any with your existing bacteria. Are you gonna keep the same scape? It makes life easier...that's for sure. As for water, I'll be using 5g's of the old water, the remainder being nsw. I'm also gonna dose NutraFin cycle for the first 3 days. The scape will be the same as it is now, just offset to the left, and on top of some new base rock. Link to comment
iball1804 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Yeah I know what you mean. Do you not like Squared? Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 9, 2011 Author Share Posted November 9, 2011 Yeah I know what you mean. Do you not like Squared? I didn't like the stupid comments he used to post. He grew out of it, at least in my threads. So, we're cool now. Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Yay, another build! Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Yay, another build! Just an upgrade.... Hopefully a permanent one. Just so you guys know... The only reason I spend so much on little tanks, is cuz I'm fighting the urge to build a monster in-wall. Once we buy a house, we'll have an in wall tank. Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I feel ya, once I own a home, something 1,000+ gallons is going in a wall. Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 i like this Glad I could be of service... Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 I feel ya, once I own a home, something 1,000+ gallons is going in a wall. I already have MASSIVE plans, for my in wall tank. I'm keeping them secret, for the time being. Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I don't have exact plans yet, just know I want something gigantic. Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 I don't have exact plans yet, just know I want something gigantic. Mine's gonna be solar powered, and in an add-on room w/ independent environmental control. I mean powered by solar panel's, not that weird sky-light hippy lighting crap. Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Ooooooo, I like that idea. Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Paint... Black is the new blue... Blacked out.... Doing my best to keep the Chaeto light, out of the frag area.... Ooooooo, I like that idea. Yep... Same system the K5 run's on. (to charge the batterires, and for power in the middle of nowhere. Larger than adequete solar panel(s), power inverter, cables to the charging system. Bam.... Portable power station. EDIT: If I do it right, the main house will run on stored powered, in the event of an outage! If I over-acheive (we all know I will), I can make enough power to get the power company to pay ME.

Orchard Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Hi Pismo, nice nano going there. Will you be nice and power my Edge if i have an blackout on Skjetten ass well. I mean, if you have more juice than you need. Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Hi Pismo, nice nano going there. Will you be nice and power my Edge if i have an blackout on Skjetten ass well. I mean, if you have more juice than you need. Pfft... If "big energy" wasn't in the way, we'd all have ALL the energy we need. It would practically be free, and no one would go without.... But.... There's bureaucracy to contend with. Not to mention the whole social elitism, thing... EDIT: For you english whiz-kid's out there.... I did mean to say "practically be free", because it would be practical for it to be free. I didn't mis-speak, I meant what I said... Link to comment
