SUBSCRIBED! Just got a 40 Nuvo set up and running myself. Where do you put your heater? Mine seems too long to put anywhere in the sump area...

Not sure what heater I have but it's too long to go in the last chamber... I might buy a new one so it fits. Super stoked on the tank so far though!

Hey man. I know you from all the streams. How do u like the Nuvo. And how bad is it not having a sump.

I love the Nuvo, I wish I did have a sump would make life easier for sure. But you can still achieve the same goals without a sump

Little update, So i have been having issues with keeping nutrients in the tank. With my weekly 18% WC and equipment i have been falling really low on the nitrate (0.05ppm) and my phosphate (0.01ppm), so i have now set my skimmer to run 12 hours a day and my weekly WC has gone to biweekly WC.

Todays parameters:
*Temp 77-78
*Salinity 1.025
*Ammo 0
*Nitrite 0
*Nitrate 2-3ppm
*Phosphate 0.03ppm
*Calcium 470
*Ph 8.34
*Alk 9
*Magnesium 1300
 
Ive been thinking to turn off my skimmer while I sleep even though its not very noisy but every bit helps and since my tank is not that dirty right now, I dont really need it on 24/7. Good luck!

Ok so Huge update, the Radion XR30 pro G4 is no longer on this reef!!!! I have gone back to what is tried and true for me witch is either MH or T5, in this case it is a ATI 8x24 fixture running 4 Blue+ 2 coral+ 1 true actinic 1 purple plus!!!pics will come tomorrow. Dont get me wrong the Radion is an amazing LED but.... it does have the issue of shadowing witch bugs me since one side of my coral is pale........ I did not have the option to supplement with T5 because i dont have a hood, so ATI 8x24 plus im getting a Reefbright LED actinic strip.
