Ugh, been so long since I've updated this thread! But thought I'd add this link: You can see video of the current state of my tank near the end of the video, enjoy! I will post more pics soon.

Neat! I missed the last one, looking forward to this one! Just fragged some of my acros and montis, so actually have some to trade this time

So this whole process took place at the beginning of May. The refugium has long since settled and become established again. I did my first post-rebuild macro algae harvest last weekend. I pulled out about 2# and tossed it (by the way, I toss out the macro algae pretty routinely, if anyone wants...

I had thought about putting in a layer of mud. However, I try not to disturb the area under the egg crate. After 18 months I had about 1/8-1/16 even layer of sludge on the bottom in my old refugium without doing anything. I didn't necessarily have to do anything except feed my fish and let...

Heh, is actually confusing to look at. It's only 54" long by 15" wide by 9" tall. Filled at 8-8.5" it holds about 28G total. Any interest in getting rid of an MP60? :)

Actually yes, concerned about that. I was down at Neptune Aquatics last weekend and saw the nice wall mount box they had for their APEX. I want one! I guess my next project will be to build a box for my APEX. Anyone know of any threads DIY threads on that topic?

If you've ever ordered a custom tank, you know it pays to be patient. You can't count on any given delivery date. Often the store you've ordered from has no control over the manufacturer's ability to deliver on a schedule. This was the case with my tanks. I ordered in December. Both tanks...

so a bit late... but continuing my story... Why "almost" a cubic meter... So as many of you guessed by now, the idea of a 39" cube sounds great, but as a practical home tank not so hot. Any of you with a significant other would immediately get the first problem. Problem 1: The spouse... "It's...

The RSM250 is indeed only 1/4 cubic meter. However, you'll note the decision I made initially on the new tank was to make it a 39" inch cube. Which would in fact be "almost" a cubic meter. I'll write more tomorrow and explain why I say... "almost". There are reasons an exact 39" inch cube would...

So I've been meaning to start this thread for a while but haven't gotten to it yet, mostly because I've been busy actually building out my new tank :) ... but since I promised several folks I would post this, here goes! Why I decided to start a new tank... When I first joined BAR I had a brand...

Congrats! Absolutely amazing tank! Hope mine will look like that someday!

And ya... they made the same mistake Seneye made... PAR meters are most useful if you have a series of them across the tank and at various depths... this looks like this supports a single sensor.

I would hope the ASM module supports something like the Carolina Nitrate probes. Would be nice to not have to do manual tests all the time.

Liked and Liked! I would love to find a frag of Rainbow Tenuis

Looks awesome! When are we going to see some club t-shirts with the logo?
