Reefing newb
Hello everyone, many of you already know me from helping me out with all my many questions and thank you all for your help, you have really made me fall in love with this site :luxlove:
I finally have my 29 gallon (soon to be reef) up and running after many decision makings and unmakings with quite a few buys and returns from my lfs. This is my first saltwater tank so im pretty excited. I originally had a 20 gallon sump/refugium built but got too paranoid about anything overflowing and flooding my 2nd floor apartment. So I settled with a HOB Aquafuge with an Aquaticlife mini Skimmer put in it.
Heres my equipment:
-30" Coralife Lunar Aqualight with two PCs: 65 watt 10000K and 65 watt True Actinic with moon lights
-Aquaticlife mini skimmer, its only rated for 30 gallons but they have really good reviews from people using them on 29 gallon tanks
-150w theo hydor heater
-CPR HOB Aquafuge with a JBJ Macro Glo light
-Sicce Voyager 1
-about 35lbs live sand and 13lbs live rock for now
What do you think? Any suggestions??
I bought this stand for 50 bucks off craigslist. Sanded it down and painted it to match the rest of our furniture with new hinges and knob :cheerful:
These pics are with the moon lights
These are with just the 10000K, (too bright for pics with both bulbs on)
My 13lbs of live rock :mrgreen: will get more soon. Probably around 35lbs or so
My Fuge with skimmer in it
I have some LS Cheato and LR rubble in it
Empty-
..aaaaand this was my original set up if i were not so paranoid
