Planning stages...
Have my aquascape complete currently curing in a brute can.

Equipment bought so far:
BRS 7 stage RODI
BRS heater with inkbird controller
RO varios 6 return pump
RO Regal 150 internal skimmer
Neptune Apex
 


Better look at the planned aquascape (NSA). Have now detected nitrate so would be ready for fish once tank in place!
 
Planned fish list includes

Pair of Picasso clowns
Aiptasia eating file fish
Yellow coris wrasse
Kole tang
Linneatus wrasse
Blue spotted jaw fish
3 anthias (undecided on which)
Mandarin (eventually)
 
Here is the space in the soon to be finished basement tank will be placed. Have a quad outlet on a separate circuit (and a dual outlet nearby if needed) and a ethernet hardwire connection for Apex...

So apparently the CADE 900 were oversold so they basically are upgrading me to the 1200 for no additional charge!

Great fish list.. but that Kole Tang is going to be very pricey nowadays. ;)
 
Tank delivered and moved down a flight of stairs to basement (currently being finished)! Another week or so and will be able to move tank into place and get it wet!!!
 
Ugh, another week before basement finished. Just want to get tank in place and start filling with water!
 
Tank is in place and plumbing hooked up! Lets get this beast wet! (Salinity in brute 35 ppt isong Milwaukee digital)
