Hi guys,
I just recently came across the Club Cube section of R2R so I figured I would go ahead and start a thread with my tank. Its not an actual "cube" but the dimensions are 24"X24"X18"H. Here is a little run down on the equipment.
Tank: Reef Savvy 24"X24"X18"H with the corner ghost overflow
Sump: Custom sump with ATO container built in.
Lights: Radion Xr30 Pro G3 mounted with the RMS single mount.
Plumbing: I just used PVC 1" and 3/4" for the return and overflow.
Pumps: I believe my return pump is a mag 9.5
Circulation: Vortech MP40 QD.
Reactor: Avast marine MR5 with the Sicce 1.5 pump & Metabolix Premium Biopellets. Have not yet installed this. Looking to add this in about 2 weeks when I get back from a vacation to ensure that I can keep an eye on it. Would like to upgrade to the recirculating system but it was sold out on there website.
ATO: Tunze 3155
Filtration: RLSS R6I Skimmer, Filter Sock, 1 gallon of MarinePure Ceramic Biomedia 1 1/2” Spheres
Temp Control: Finnex 300w titanium heater
Control: Apex jr. ( have not installed. Project for the weekend.)
Base: I used about 35lbs of live rock and I went with the black Hawaiian sand.
As far as inhabitants go, I like to see a lot of fish moving around and I like feeding so that’s why I went with a bit of an over sized skimmer and going to add the reactor. So far I have:
-2 sunburst anthias
-blue spotted jaw fish
-2 helfrichi fire fish
-barnacle blenny
-clown goby
-2 midnight clowns
-2 emerald crabs
-3 different types of snails. 5 turbo's, the other two types I forgot the name.
Corals: Mostly LPS so far. I have a few acans/ chalices/ zoas/ scoly. Want to branch into some sps soon so we will see. Also wanted to add a bubble tip or torch to give the tank some flow.
I will post a few pictures later when I get home. Let me know what you guys think.
