DIY projects

I've been absent for a while because I've been too busy with college and work, but I'm back now, hopefully for good. I've got a few upgrades coming soon and also some cool "side-tank projects" I want to share with Reef Addicts. But what really prompted me to log on tonight was this: I've been going to school in the mornings and working mostly the graveyard shift, because of this I don't really have much time to interact with my tank other than maintenance. This evening was the first time ...

So my tank has been going pretty well. Almost too well. My Montipora has been putting on a measured growth weekly, gorgonians open and growing, even my goniopora has grown and attached to nearby rocks.

But I've always been unhappy with the tank.

Last week listening to Gary & Christine's Reef Threads podcast (which is a nice replacement to the Reef Addicts podcast since it is updated like.....NEVER! I'm looking at you Melev!) ...

Well couldn't overcome the hair algae issues from a second hand tank I bought so all live stock sold and tank stripped down. When removing all items the state of them was awful and all now cleaned up and like new.

Decided while tank stripped going to buy the Tunze 9002 upgrade and Media rack as they seem to improve the water clarity and flow etc.

Taken a while to do but worth it as know when complete will have a lovely tank again.

Back ...

Well, well, well....looks like I'm back on familiar grounds. It has been nearly two years since I last started my 300 Gallon Mixed Reef. I sold off my second build reef and have just planning rimless.

I plan on doing some interesting things with this new setup, and I know that it will be even better than the last one.

The new tank will be Rimless and will have the following specs:
