Looks cool, definitely different any plans for the rock that sticks out of the water? Will it be a waterfall type deal or just stay dry?

Yeah im actually planing on doing kind of a tide pool to a waterfall and then rest of the rock is going to get covered in some type of greenery and most likely mini orchids

Default Epic

I've been following this built since the preliminary stages of the wave box and I have to admit, this has evolved into a truly epic built... cant think of anything missed, everything is done with a great deal of attention, truly epic in my opinion.

Well done and keep us posted :P

I was poking around the Tunze site today and noticed their updated version of the nano wavebox uses a stock 6055. since that comes with a magnet mount already I might source one used and purchase a wave controller. I know you're done but thought I'd mention it here where it's semi relevant.

I KNOW I KNOW!!!! HAHAHA i wish i know this just a few months earlier haha but i think im going to go that rout too! Also the output on the front is 1.5-1.59" so it should fit perfectly into a 1 1/2" bulk head hahaha. My pump is starting to click and ive looked into why its doing that but so far every problem i have found out about on the RC forum hasnt been the issue with mine, so in the not to distant future i think im going to try out the 6055 to see what happens, PLUS is has the same type of connection that my current pump has so it should be just plug and play (Fingers crossed)

Hey guys, i hope you all had a great christmas!! I got some more stuff done over the holidays. were getting close to getting saltwater into it now!! I drained all the fresh water out of the tank and the sump, I also plumed a Phosban 150 Reactor into my return line and cleaned up the extra wireing on the back side of my tank! Enjoy!!
