Good Afternoon all,
I hope this finds you all well, as always its better to be part of a community that understands these things and i appreciate any help with this as i go along, I've read a few posts and probably most of this will have been asked elsewhere, but my mind doesn't work the way it once did, so i'm starting a fresh.
currently setup with a 360l old freshwater tank that has been converted to a salt with
2 x aquis one 1250l external cannister filters with inline 200 watt heaters
2 x vectron 600 UV sterilisers with pump
1 x ARL refugium tube thing with pump
2 x mp40
3 x eco radion xr15 pro
1 x surface mount skimmer (not great)
currently a few snails, a few shrimp, orange spot goby, peacock wrasse and a couple of fox face, 2 main corals and a few stragglers
I have been very lucky and managed to get a Red Sea Reefer 525XL which will be delivered in a few weeks, i need to prep and get everything else ordered at the same time, as it needs to be a days transition, i could do with a little input/help with a few recommendations.
i will be transferring the MP40s, the Eco Radions and the UV over, i have ordered a Eco tech Vectra M2 and a red sea reefer RSK 600 protein skimmer, 2 x d & d 300 watt titanium heaters with a dual controller.
this will be a long term/last tank i want to take it slow but want it tomorrow all at the same time.
How does this sound for a base ? what else do i need, the plumbing i'm not sure on as i may need tubing for the return pump ? would it be better to install a manifold system now or can this be done at a later date ? im contemplating on a Nyos Torq for my carbon etc and eventually an Apex.
Many Thanks for any input.
Kind Regards
Alex
