Where do you store your dosing pumps?

 

[shoelaceike]

Hey Mike, I got one more question on this...I need the exact dimensions of the stand. They have it listed as 47.5x23.5...is that correct? Thank you so much!

On top of my ato reservoir.

New addition to the tank last night. Been in QT for 3 weeks. Added him after lights out. Tang has been swimming near him this morning but no other aggression so far.

Rare Neptune sale = new equipment:

Louie approves.

 

[Mike Kearns]

A few more things I picked up during the sale. Have one more order coming and then I am going to redo the controller cabinet.

Looking great and has been helpful for my build. What did you end up doing to seal the bottom of the inside of the stand? I've never had a stand with a gap around the stand flooring that can allow water under the tank. Any ideas?

Thanks. I originally was going to just use black silicone around the bottom of the sump area, but never did. Living on the lazy edge here. I do have leak detectors, and just got the Neptune ones.

One last big order of new stuff. I decided to upgrade my skimmer. I was just tired of all the micro bubbles from the Simplicity skimmer. It skimmed great but no matter how I adjusted it there were always micro bubbles in the display and with having a trident I was worried about it sucking them up a messing with the tests. I am loving the reef octopus so far. No bubbles!

Working on a new controller board. It is going in a cabinet next to my tank that had dvd/Blu-ray discs in it. I acquired it in the trade with the wife, but did not do anything with it until now.

Lower left corner is for the trident. Skimmer and ato controller won’t reach the cabinet and the heater controller will require short extension cords for the heaters. Not sure if I even want to bother with the mp 40 controllers because they can’t be unplugged from the motors department they don’t do anything with Mobius running. The 2 glass jars will become 3. One for alk one for cal and one waste for the trident. Looking for input or ideas.

What made you decided to move away from the control board you have by the stands side-door, running out of space?

Exactly! Once I got the Trident there wasn't room for everything under the tank.

Ha! Makes sense, mine is barely underway and I'm already negotiating a cabinet next to it with the significant other. Good luck with the board!

Thanks so much for sharing this! We are looking into one of their INT tanks currently. Would be our first saltwater.

Any chance you like to show it off to strangers who live in pdx metro?
