It's 2018!! What big plans do you have for your reef?

In a couple of weeks I am going to remove all my current rock and replace it with Fiji Rock I have been cycling. I am going to aquascape it from front to back instead of just one main row in the back. I'll be going for depth! Also going to remove most of my sand and go with a more large grain. Have that ready to go as well. :)

Then I'll add my second DOS and get the Triton Method rocking on the tank. I'm excited!
 
2018 will hit the ground running with the expansion of my 29 gal nano with the second sump addition. The ATO kit arrived today, and I picked up the final piece of the ATS which is 90% done. The rubble rock has been curing for a week, its egg crate box is built. Obviously the weir and overflow was done. I moved the gfo/carbon reactor to the sump. I also added a second heater to the sump and connected the heaters to a willfi controller. last night I cut a plywood a board and mounted and labeled all the plugs for easy access at feeding time as well as much needed organization.

i ordered 4 frags from cherry corals to kick off 2018 - as part of my commitment to take the tank to the next level.
 
NEW TANK! :p The seam on my DT sprung a leak just before Christmas and attempts to fix failed. :oops: Just ordered a new tank that will be delivered on January 13. :D. A pipe clamp will hopefully hold the old one together until then.

Get my 180g tank up and slowly add fish and corals. I am hoping by this time next year to have a stable growing slice of the reef.

Hoping to perfect my qt. skills also.
 
I usually wait until after the first of the year (to do something big) but... (lol) I jumped the gun and installed a GEO 2 stage cal reactor in October :)

Upgrading from a 7.5 gal nano to a 40 breeder with 20 long sump and DIY stand. Hopefully I'll be able to move up to a much bigger tank in the next couple of years if this goes well.
Your going to love that sump.
