Re: My little chunk of ocean! 210 Gallon Build

Ok got the man made rock into the 210 kinda just threw it in there for now but it gives it a better size reference. I bought a second 500 watt titanium heater and controller. I am getting the light fixture this week, its a 6 foot T-5 fixture and has 6 80 watt T-5's.

Re: My little chunk of ocean! 210 Gallon Build

Thats the middle of the tank I have 2 MJ mods on one end and 1 on the other they meet in the middle and make waves. I have soe aquascaping and some adjusting to do yet. I havent really messed with it cause its goingto be another month or two before I get fish in there I may do something tomorrow though cause I'm off work.

Great start Kv!

I wish my overflows were on the corners like that.

Re: My little chunk of ocean! 210 Gallon Build

yeah, i dont like the way my overflows are either because stuff always gets trapped in the corners where nothing can move it into the overflows

Nice shapes on the manmade rock.
Gotta love it when the sand parts in the middle.
