Hi guys, I am starting this thread up for the tank i am setting up at school to propogate and mass produce corals. You know what this means right...DEALS FOR REEFERSCAFE! I was thinking something along the lines of $20 5x5 green star polyp, $10 15 polyp zoo frags, $50 deco rock with coralline algae, xenia colony, zoos, palys, and shrooms. there will also be some awesome LPS thrown in there, expecially euphyllias and micros.

PICS COME TOMORROW!

Well since im helping you set up the tank ill probably get a free share of it
O and btw its a much "crisp looking" tank if you have the return go out of the overflow. I checked it out on my friends tank...makes sense-thanks

No problem for the advice, ill plumb it whenever you get it, and ill make the sump for you.

But let us now review the definition of "helping". When I tell someone to hold the pipe down the tube so it does not get the teachers papers wet, it means you hold the tube down, not screw around and eventually soak half the papers. It also means you lend a hand, rather than scavenge for powerheads and stuff. But yea, danny is helping. there may be a ration of like 95% me and 5% him, but thats alright

What are you going to do with the tank during summer break?

[SulfurAcid]

Im going to be coming to the school every now and then, Im trying to get it fully automated, so it could be fine for a week or two.

pics come at 5:00

Danny actually helped a ton today, as we completly drained the water out, and are now getting the calcium reactor ready. It is a knopp brand, and looks very nice and well put together. The Germans know their stuff. Danny is going to be in charge of hooking up the UV sterilizer to the stand, and I will put together the CO2 and calcium reactor, along with pH monitor, temperature controller. We also ran into a predicament when some of the high school kids ran into the chiller and broke it. Don know how they did it as it is pretty hidden.

TIME FOR PICTURES!!!Sorry for my amateur photography.

Right view of the 50g sump, along with the UV sterilizer that is going to soo be hooked up.



The ReefDoser, I really love the way that this thing pumps



Skimmer, its a berlin with a Kent venturi, we are waiting on a new pump for it, a Turbo edition.



CO2 components and the pH controller to soon be hooked up



NO reefers, the tank is not brown, the lighting is just terrible. Its a 125g



Front view of the sump, notice the temp probe. That is coming from the Medusa temperature controller



Chiller probe


Tank is going to be filled with water as soon as the stupid pump for the skimmer comes.
