=^..^=90 gallon miracles tank
This is going to take a long time for me to get off the ground.
Even though it a midsize tank I plan on putting all the bells and whistles on this tank. Im hoping that ecotech comes out with a new skimmer by next year http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...psys5sdt4l.png |
Here is the controller its a neptune Jr.
I don't run a Ph probe I never found it use full. I don't know if I will be running ozone never found I needed it for prior tanks. http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...pslqsqgkqr.jpg |
The bare bones.
I want to add a lot more Neptune products to my tank. I should have bought this years ago. Got by with just a reef keeper http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...psuvq2ogjc.jpg |
Tunze is adding DC to its 9012 skimmer
I think I am going to go Tunze for this tank. Never had one of there skimmers but I know its quite. Its a nice fit for the tank. http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9ykmv6tu.jpg |

Red and white looks classier , so depends what look you want . Radioactive glow or subtle look . Are you using any vertex equipment ?

Sumps
I was thinking of getting the red and white but asking them to make it orange so I could use orange pvc pipe. Also I do already own a green ato that's why I thought to go with the green sump. Also the tunze skimmer is also black. Here is another tank that went with the green looks sharp still http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...pslm7asvzs.jpg http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...ps676a7669.jpg |
Take my money I want one
|
Very cool looking Sumps. I'd love one myself in Green/Black. But not sure if that company ships to Canada.

Is the idea to replace your current tank? Wondering why bother upsizing only 15 gals?

Hmmm... maybe I should change your other tank build name to 'Johns 90gal' then. Lol.
Those sumps are very pretty, but overpriced IMHO. |

Here is the tank. I think im going to have to buy a monteray stand for it. |
The tank looks awesome! The single piece of black acrylic is very snazzy! Just make sure you never take a metal scraper blade to it, it will scratch. The softer green bristle pads work just as well.

Finally got the tank
http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...psuuxa2pie.jpg Now I just have to decide and the kind of stand I want. I really don't know what I am going to do. Miracles dropped off the tank but diden't carry anything into the house. The tank feels real heavy the glass thickness is a lot thicker then my current tank |

Some of my acans |
HTML Code:
<h1>Update</h1> I just paid for the stand it should look like this but only with two doors. I have to wait four weeks before I get it. It is what they call there espresso style |
Does anybody know how to use the Html and Php tags? in the comment section?
|
Thats the stand I got for my 48x20x20. They did an incredible job! You'll love it. Just make sure to paint the inside with a Kilz to waterproof it, i'd do the doors to as any serious splashing will eventually damage the hardwoord.

Got the stand they painted black I told them to stain it :cry: I asked for a stand without a centre brace. They did not listen to me again :cry: |
The centre brace is probably removable, though im not sure i'd recommend it long term. I personally think the black looks sharp, and it puts the attention on the corals/fish instead of the stand. But I totally understand your disappointment.

http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...psxhlp01qm.jpg http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...psa1q045du.jpg Got a new skimmer. Im much happier with the reef octopus compared to the omega. Im starting to get together the controller just bought a Eb32 looking to pick up the neptune next month. I've started dosing bacteria to the new tank everything is stable in the old tank Looking to switch over once I get my controller and circulation and new lighting I am going t5 with some E5 leds Im hoping Ray at reef supplies will feature my tank in the customer tanks when he gets that started. |

http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1gjhp0r0.jpg http://i1173.photobucket.com/albums/...psq3k4qqcd.jpg Can't wait until the core comes out. Im looking to do two motion vertex things one on the ecotech and one on the new Neptune pump. |
What type of carbon reactor is that?
|
I believe your talking about the vertex Devin

I don't even know how long water has been in the tank but went threw some cloudyness for about a month and Im sure the thing is cycled |
