Talking update

Been super busy so I haven't gotten much done, but every day I see a reminder sitting on my desk to get my butt in gear!

Light over the chaeto / LR grow area is built and installed, and the ATO plumbing is 90% finished. I find that I'm burning through a surprising amount of water even with the lid covering most of the tank, must be really dry in this office. Going through about 1L per week right now, can't wait to get this ATO working. Last major stage is to find some time on the equipment so I can knock out the chassis for the main light fixture. After that it's coral time!

Enjoy the pics!

Fish room (cubby)



Business area showing the hoses running into the return area. Those will be plumbed up to the reservoir in the cabinet to function as ATO.


Chaeto / LR grow area with lights on. The tint is working nicely to show me what's happening in there with the lights on, looks black and tidy during the day with the grow lights out.
