Inside the Glass Box

Hi Reefers,


So the return journey begins – tank designed & ordered PLUS all equipment, lighting, "marco" rock etc.

The LONG TERM PLAN is an environment & reef where we can keep Clown Fish & a Magnifica anemone, with some other reef friendly friends in a minimalistic as possible aquascape.

Been doing lots of research on the successful care of Magnifica, but please if anyone as some advice, personal experience, tips & suggestions, please send my way – all input will be greatly appreciated

Display Tank - Rimless
=> 1,600mm x 700mm x 500mm
=> StarFire Glass (20mm)
=> 4 Sided See Through
=> Corner Box overflow

Tank Stand, Cabinet & Sump
=> Galvanised stand
=> Hi Gloss White Cabinet (2,400mm x 800mm x 800mm)
=> Sump - 10mm Glass (1,200mm x 650mm x 350mm)
=> Sump includes ATO compartment

The Equipment List & Other
=> TMC Reef Skimmer 1.000L
=> TMC Reefer 1.000 Reactor (Carbon / Phosphate)
=> TMC Reef Dosing Pump 3 x channel
=> Tunze Flow Pump - 6095 with controller
=> Tunze Nano-Rock
=> Tunze ATO
=> Tunze Return (super silent)
=> Jager Heater 300w
=> Teco Chiller
=> PacificSun, Metis Hyperion R2

So reefers, that’s my story & plan – looking forward to the journey with you & once again any & all advice most welcome

God Bless
Michael

Not much update, but at least tank cycling

Did pop round to my brothers place & took some pic's of his tank

OK, so my first two ocean friends arrived ... Kole Tang & Yellow Tang

Photographing under PacificSun LED's has been a challenge
