Dsmhero's 60g Cube

[dsmhero]

I guess it is time for an upgrade. I noticed the 24g was seeping from the rear corner and it was getting worse every month, so I got the go ahead to go bigger. Plus my coral is getting huge and has no where to go...



Here are the current specs for the new tank...

Marineland 60g Cube (24x24x24)
Marineland Ventura Stand
20H sump w/ fuge
Mag 300 return pump
Eshopps PSK-100 Skimmer
AI Sol - will upgrade to the Vega
MP10 - I know I will need more flow
50lbs of Marco rock will be here Tues

I am going to order the BRS dual Carbon/GFO reactor soon.



I also painted the inside of the stand white.

Looks great! Is that the red oak cabinet? It only comes in two colors, so I assume it is. How tall is it?

 

[dsmhero]

Yes. Red oak Ventura standing at 31.75", a nice height I think.

Updates!

Day of the transfer



Decided to dip all my corals before I transfer them over. Here is what I used...



Here are my rinse and dip buckets, a 10 min dip with a 15 min rinse...







I just set the corals in there for the time being, I will start arranging stuff as soon as I get some free time.



My brother hooked me up with some nice APC's



Here are some close ups...

[JoeTSI]

Nice, not to get off topic but I'm an admin over at NABR. Wondering if I know who you are. My old nick was GoFastTSI and have had numerous DSM's over the years, Supra, and now a Syclone. Anyway, look forward to more build pics on your tank.
