FTS due!!

Slow progress but here it is.

Got the tank in it's cabinet now :-)





The back of the case and front bezel come off for access to the tank.



Here you can see the rear chambers with heater, ATO and Minijet 606 return pump.



And I cut and hinged the top of the front part of the frame for access into the tank itself.





I added a bit more rock and a couple of frags. one small piece of tree coral that came off a larger one I had and a few zoa frags. I had two snails but they died. I think maybe something was leaching out of the rock wall as the pH was a bit low and the frags all closed up but two 100% water changes later the corals seem happier. I want to get it stable and make sure the coral frags and snails are happy before I go with any other type of livestock.

Anyhow, here is a shot into the tank.

Looks pretty sweet... I don't really like the rock wall look, but yours is pretty great!

Awesome job on the aquarium! I love the rock wall. can't wait to see it with fish. What do you plan to add?

That is absolutely gnarly. Good job on the tank! Excited to see the finished product.
And as stated before, good thing it's a mac.

This is too cool! Some amazing DIY skillz...even ATO in the back I love it!

[Ron99]

Thanks everybody. It's coming together but there's still a long way to go

Hey Jake, welcome to Canreef. I'm trying to decide whether or not to keep it inverts only as it is very small. So I was thinking about a couple of sexy shrimp and then either a pair of bumble bee shrimps or maybe a small goby. I would like a greenbanded goby if I can get one but they are hard to get in Canada.
