[Preme]

WOW! Very nice tank! I don't know how I missed this one before.
What did you use to make that box for your controllers to be mounted? Sorry if I missed it before

Incredible tank. Sump is best one around. thanks for sharing.

I'm building the courage to also take off the black vinyl from mine ...

Remove it!... you won't regret it. Well, depending on your wall color lol.

The control panel area is all MDF and acrylic.

That is simply using the Neptune Apex app... not Fusion. Once you connect to your controller on the app, there's a little heart beat icon in the top right of the app... just click on it!

FWIW, I use the Fusion app for everything else.

Are you running Carbon & GFO 24/7 or only when necessary ?

I do not run carbon at all, just the GFO. The third reactor is empty, but there just incase I need to run carbon in the event of an emergency. I run the the GFO 24/7.

Also which brad Biopellets are you running?

I use EcoBak bio pellets.

@Broadfield what is your current stock list (fish)?

I'm looking to add 3 Lyretail Anthias but reading different opinions on how many and which species to go with.


This is what I'm thinking of at the moment:

2 - clowns
1 - sixline
1 - lawnmower
3 - lyretail anthias
1 - royal gramma

Looking for a few more to go with that list that are compatible so if anyone has some recommendations feel free.
