45 gallon tank journal
Well I've been lurking around this forum for four or five years now. Last fall I purchased a biocube 14-my first saltwater excursion after over a decade in freshwater. Anyway, I was bitten by the saltwater bug and I have now upgraded to a tank that I purchased from fellow canreef member Canadian. The tank measures 24x24x18, with a false acrylic wall in the back. The viewing/display area is more like 24x18x18. Currently there is no skimmer, will definitely be adding that down the road. For the lights I've got a 24" Sunlight Supply Tek T5 fixture 4x24watt.
I set the tank up this past Monday and transferred the livestock over the following night. On Thursday I added 20lbs or so of great live rock that I purchased from Buddyboy. Anyway, without any further ado, my tank: http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...k/IMG_2335.jpg http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...k/IMG_2333.jpg Note the old Biocube and the size difference:) http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...k/IMG_2339.jpg http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...k/IMG_2343.jpg http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...k/IMG_2342.jpg Anyway, I'll post more pictures in the future once the dust has settled down... Thanks for looking. |
Looking good. Cubes are great tanks...they always look sharp!

I'm trying to put together a wish list of fish and corals that I would like to add to the tank yet. So far I'm considering a dwarf flame angel, some more lps and some hardier sps down the road once I've upped the flow in the tank. Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
