Hi All...

So going back many many years ago as a young adult, l had a custom 8ft x 2x2 marine tank complete with a trickle filter sump build and ran it successfully for many years until a busy working life unfortunately took over. So l gave all my stock to Seaworld and have longed for a tank ever since.

Over the past few years lve been researching for a new tank setup and have final settled on a 2nd hand waterbox 70.2.
This process alone has taken 3mths hahaha... talk about having patience. And so then 2 days ago was the first fill.

Im using 100% RODI and aquaforest Pro-biotic salt with Bio S as a start up kit, also have mantis bio blocks in the sump with a large amount of CaribSea live rock as can be seen.

Salinity is sitting at 32.8pp with a temp of 25. Yet to test other parameters but that'll be tomorrows job.

Great to meet you all in advance and look forward to the journey

Welcome to R2R, ahhh Ye Olde Trickle filter lol I know ye well.
I still have about 10 gallons of bio balls sitting in a plastic bag collecting dust.
Welcome back to the obsession, good luck with your new tank.
