I need to find time to paint the stand, then plumb, leak test, build sump, then I should be ready for salt water. I have a rubbermaid tote sitting in that room right now with about 70 pounds of live rock in it (from a tank shutdown). It has a 6 bulb tek t5 fixture over it :-D
I plan on just stock this tank with corals (mostly SPS) for now. Going to go fishless and see how that goes for a while. If that doesn't work out I'll probably throw in a bunch of threadfin cardinals and call it a day.
Found a great deal on a used skimmer. Just need to go pick it up. Also got my powerheads used. One tunze 6105 and two 6101s pretty cheap. Will control those with the tunze controller I got also for cheap on boxing day :-D
I'm debating about getting a used profilux for a pretty good deal.. Are you sensing a theme yet?
