Saltgator's 240 Build

I've got a trio of zebra banded dart fish that are really cool. When their out... They hide a lot!

That's what I was worried about. Yep, scratch that. How bout a school of damsels???? Lol

 

[schooleyosis]

While some are cool, it's just not worth it. Lol

Definitely!! Btw, I'm thinking if I don't go the tang route, maybe a trigger (wish I could afford a crosshatch).

 

[schooleyosis]

Triggers are awesome, don't think you could go wrong with one or two

 

[Saltgator]

Been slow in the 240. Not much happening. Tomorrow gonna plumb the 50g fuge in. Really really hope it takes the no3 out. Got to get sand or crushed coral for the fuge still.

Wanting more fish (in the 240) cause I feel it's so bare and blah. Looking still at a big tang (fowleri) or a crosshatch trigger (male or m/f pair). Really wouldn't mind a school of color rather than a big fish but chromis and anthias are hit and miss occasionally.

 

[schooleyosis]

Big fish pair rather than a school of smaller ones. LOL

Hope all works out for ya man!!!

 

[Saltgator]

I here ya bud! How's a school of vlamingi tangs sound! Lol haha, kidding of course

Brett, I know lazy, I'm a perfectionist at it.
Kschweer, lol. That's my skimmate each week. Enough to discolor my hand!

Completely missed your post Chris. My bad. Yes sir, SWC 230. I've completely allowed the venturi line to just suck as much air as possible. Went it's on the adjustable intake, it just seem to be unhappy.

On a side note, for what it's worth, tested with a API test tonight and got 40 ppm on the NO3. Happy happy (not really).

Haven't hooked the 50g fuge in yet. Had the wrong bulkhead for the return. Now I need more pvc.
