Finally - New photos of Tank + Sump!
So it only took me about 2 months to get my sump up and going, and just as freakin' long to get some new pictures, which I blame on the new 14k bulb not letting me take any pictures that don't make my tank look like... well, a blueberry.
Okay - so here goes, first the main tank: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4.../MainTank1.jpg Left side of sump, overflow going down into the skimmer. Please forgive the ugly baffles, they suck and I know - I used enough silicone to make Pam Anderson jealous ;) Also - that's my light BEFORE I went and knocked it into the tank. Amen for grounding probes. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...erandLight.jpg Here's the "fuge" - I've added a bit more macro and a nice size piece of rock since this picture, also took away a powerhead. To the far right you'll see the return area, I've got my heater, AC1000 with my UV Sterilizer, and my MJ1200 return to the display. If I was to do it over, I'd try and make my initial baffles after the skimmer smaller, as I burn about 2L of water a day - yowsers. However, that's less than before I had the sump. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...eandReturn.jpg and there she is! The skimmer is pulling out about 300ML of gunk every 2x a week, it's not SUPER thick, but it's decent and I'm happy after about 2 or 3 weeks. So there it is!!! It's not amazing, but I love it :) I'm SO glad I had the grounding probe, I don't know what would have happened to the tank without it.... ugh. |
Looking good Nick, And I and verify it does not look like a blueberry. :wink:
Tank looks great in person as does his little nano. |
Nice! :cool:
|
That is a huge leather there in the front. That thing looks like a tree!!!
Great looking tank. Kris |

So for anyone that PM'd me about one, I figure this coming week will be my time to get my frag on :) |
What are the dimensions of your tank and sump?

Quote:
Tank is 24x24x18 Sump is 24x12x16.5 Cube tanks are the bomb! :) |
That tank is a good dimension, looks cool. How do you like the skimmer? It is a euro reef correct?
|
The skimmer is pretty darn good, it's a Tunze DOC, old school model (902 or something?) but it's been collecting some good gunk, I'm glad it's not working TOO well, I need some gunk for my fuge ;)
Now if only I could get my flow straight, I'd be happy. Either there's too much flow somewhere, or not enough elsewhere... Maybe I need a few nanostreams ;) Oh honey... HONEY.... |
