New lighting

I was so excited to drop a list of fish…

Go for it! Its good to have fun

 

[MarineandReef Jaron]

I want to re-do my mixing set up. My brute trashcans have some lean to them after a decade of use.

 

[Wrassenaround]

Red Sea reefmat

I have the Reefmat and let me tell you its wonderful!

 

[Wrassenaround]

Let's keep the list going! New equipment has come out since the creation of this thread!

 

[MoshJosh]

It's low on my list, but if money was no object I would buy one of those aptasia UV lasers.

 

[jimfish98]

Nothing left to get and anything left that I could get would take me beyond my goal of KISS way of running tanks.

 

[Alpha_and_Gec]

300 - 500gal flat elasmobranch reef... plus a catshark breeder tank if I have any left. DIY to cut costs and minimal decorations. Corals not included.

Doesn't the song go "if I had a million dollars..."?

 

[Bruttall]

I'm gonna need a little more than 1k. My next Tank is going to cost over 15k. Go BIG or Go Home!! When you UPGRADE from a 300g it gets fookin expensive!!

This is pretty simple, if you had $1,000 what type of equipment would you get with that?

I'm between a Neptune setup (apex, power bar, trident) or a Mastertronic. (cover the extra costs as these are over $1k)

My lights are good and my filtration is all set, feel free to take a look at my build thread for suggestions!

I’d buy gas for the car and if I had anything left over I’d buy a ice cream cone

Since you asked a specific question - between one or the other - I'll say Mastertronic. It's pretty easy to take over the functions of the trident with simple dosing. Though a case can be made for it, it's my opinion that you do not need such frequent measurements of alkalinity, Ca, etc. Additionally I wouldn't consider dosing alkalinity/Ca based on a machine value. The mastertronic seems accurate, you can set the testing schedule and it tests more.

However, my own answer would be neither.

......60% of that $1000 would go towards electricity to run my tank! Correction, my house abd my tank!

 

[c4haskett]

Hydros X10, XP8, IV and Salinity Kit.

 

[((FORDTECH))]

1000$ don’t go very far last month electric bill was 540$

 

[Spare time]

A battery backup and that is about it. I am pretty satisfied with my setups

Dijon ketchup!

 

[reeftivo]

get a quality battery back up and new return pump

or bigger sump

 

[Klyle]

I would think long and hard…then I would get whatever I determined would make my reefing easier.
