There is nothing left to do here. NanoTopia has won NanoReef, we might as well all go home.

This is nuts! My setup sucks!

 

 

LOL

 

You guys are all my inspiration here.

So I see that u have an apex in your 20 but a RKL for this one. Idk how much experience u have with the RKL but was wondering if u could recommend one for someone who has never had a controller before. Is the apex jr really worth the $100 more than the RKL? It would be between those two for me

Looking up under the reservoir area, still some more cords to plug in once the sump and ATO reservoir is in place

I would go with the Apex Jr.

 

I went with the DA Reefkeeper Lite simply because all I need to control is temperature (fan/heater) for this build. The LED fixture will have it's own controller. I love my Apex for the 20 gallon, it has unlimited possibilities.

Wow, I just caught up on this build, and just... Wow... If you don't mind, what are you using to do all of your custom acrylic work? Are you having it laser cut? Because it sure looks great!

 

Edit: @ZROGST: Glad I'm not the only curious one! At the same time even! Cheers!

I don't even understand how you did that? What do you have a CNC machine and a team of engineers in your garage? :blink:

Thats what i was wondering too. Was also looking through her stand build then looking at my stand then getting sad.

 

Guess this is you get when U plan ahead. Not just planing as u build like me :)
