My new 10 g Coldwater build

[brencrazy]

This is the starting post for my build I keep Coldwater tanks in my garage but it's getting really hot and the anemones don't like that so it's time for a mini Coldwater set up inside.

I currently have a 20 gallon with 17 anemones in it. It's an awesome tank when it's working.

end of the day everything is ready for the foam rock wall to begin. Stripping the top plastic was super hard and long process took my time so I didn't crack the glass. Holds water and doesn't bow!

You can buy them online from one Coldwater site.

I really like how this tank is coming along. Next step is plumbing and finishing the stand. FedEx is being a pain and they delayed my chiller.

At this point the tank is up and running chiller is working and the light comes today the foam had 3 days to cure. I do not know if cycling the tank with the start up bio-spira but I will see if this works for Coldwater. As soon as I get home from work I am planning on putting in a turban snail and seeing how it does. Ordered a protein skimmer for the tank last night. Next step is to buy an Apex Jr and have this tank remotely operational. I should be able to complete this in around 2 months.
