TatorTaco Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I think you and @kimberbee should get together with your Barbies. :-) Seriously though, thanks the image. I'm not good with the metric system. 2 2 Quote Link to comment

ommeh Posted August 10, 2018 Author Share Posted August 10, 2018 Sooooooo this just happened! Dalua Australia has gladly provided me with this amazing light! It's the Illumagic Blaze X Mini I pick up the sump early next week! So excited to start plumbing it all together. 3 Quote Link to comment
ommeh Posted August 12, 2018 Author Share Posted August 12, 2018 Waiting for Coral - Tank BuildSo here it is! What you've all be waiting for! The Sump is finally in the cabinet! Now to order the plumbing parts and we can start connecting everything up. Got the Jeboa DP-4 in there to measure it up in regards to how much space I have. I'll need to get a 4 chamber dosing container as I'll be running Aquaforest Component 123+ and Aquaforest Nitrophos Minus. Only weeks away now from getting the tank wet I hope!

Joevember Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 My interest is already peaked and there isn't even any water in that tank yet. Quote Link to comment
JBM Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I like what I see. Really digging that return pipe. Wish we had something like that here Quote Link to comment
ommeh Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 Hahaha well we don't know how it will go yet. Going with glass may be my undoing haha Quote Link to comment
TatorTaco Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Could you take a pic with a soda can, a cell phone beside it, or something so I can scale this correctly in my head? I know you did one with a Barbie doll, but I'm really struggling to visualize the size here. Thanks in advance. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think it's 450ml bottle. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

pappadumplingz Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Good to see another aussie reefer on here! Saw you on the facebook's and thought i'd drop by. Lucky you getting that Blaze, starting a new tank in a few months, reckon you could hit me up 😆??? 1 Quote Link to comment
ommeh Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Waiting for Coral - Tank BuildShe's plumbed! Finally got my hands on the pipes and cut today. The schedule80 was so thick it snapped my first cutter. Lucky for me Bunnings is just down the road and onto my next pair. Will cement it all tomorrow but this just gives you all an idea of things to come. Have a couple of DIY stuff I want to add before she gets wet. So excited!
