 Topic: 20Gal again
Posted: May 24 2011 at 6:52pm |
|
So Im just gonna use my 20 gal and get a new salt water setup going.
Right now I'm building my stand. I'm just using 2x4's and will smooth
out and stain when we get our house.
I am gonna be using a 30"
current usa fixture again. I would like to use a 24" T5ho if someone had
one they could trade that has moon lights.
For flow I'm looking for 2 or 3 powerheads. I want to go sumpless but will try doing a protein skimmer and small hob fuge.
I
will most likely be using utah rock and make a small amount of fiji if I
can find it. If anyone had some utah rock and sand lieing around they
could donate or sale for cheap that would be awesome.
Thanks I'll post some pictures soon on the stand. :D

I got my stand most of the way done and also a new powerhead today.(first) I just need to get one more then a hob filter for a fuge. But anyways here is some pics.  Hydor Pico evo.mag 180GPH Works amazing, it has that tip to circulate a bit different, I love it so far.  This is gonna be the stand for now,. Not the best, and not the worse either. Very very sturdy. Still need sand and rock.

It looks like you're making good time. I do have TONS of nice LBTR left if you're interested (and it's the good stuff). I might have some extra sand left from my current project but I won't be able to know for sure until it gets closer to completion.

Let me know if you need any help. The most important thing is to be patient, plan it all out, and get the best available for your tank size, even if it takes you a little longer to set it up it will be well worth it in the end to do it well the first time rather than replacing/upgrading things later.
