Completion of Side Cabinet
Well, after several months of slow work we have finally completed the side cabinet that houses our ATO tank, a small amount of storage and the electrical "stuff".
It started as two sheets of plywood, became three seperate boxes and then one cabinet.   The bottom main cabinet is for the ATO tank, the top portion houses the electrical stuff and the bottom side one is for a bit of storage.    We designed the electrical cabinet with a 2 inch space in the back at the top and bottom for ventilation. In the cabinet are the controls for the ELOS ATO, the skimmer and return pump, the two VorTech MP10s, and the two Radions. I have space for a future UPS (cost is delaying the purchase). Thank you to Subman for the inspiration for the electrical part of the cabinet. All in all, we are quite please with how it turned out.  Next on the "to do list" is to complete the water station in the basement.

Wow , that is one of the cleanest, most organized electrical setups I have seen. Subman may have started something here.
Well done

Almost ready to go!!
We have been doing regular water changes and testing the water since we got the SW in the tank. We have been using Salifert test kits. As of last night the levels have been stable for three days at the following: NH4 - <0.25 NO3 - between 2.5 and 1 PO4 - 0 The plan for today is to add the substate - we have 60 lbs of Nature's Ocean Substrate - argonite reef sand. We will rinse it well before adding it. We will then let everything settle, do another water change, further tests and then I think we will be ready to add a small cleanup crew. While all this is happening we also will set up our quarantine tank.  We are completly open to ideas / thought on what to add first for a cleanup crew.
