That's awesome, do you have your water, racks and all ready to go I cant wait to see your frag tank filled:Cheers:

 

[JustinsReefTank]

I have the RO system ready to fill it and getting live rock today to start the cycle. I'm gonna put 5 gallons of water from my DT in there t help the cycle. The racks are being built tonight. Got the egg crate today. So that will be fun. Will have lots of pics and maybe a vid. Got the camera charging now!

 

[ZyberGoby]

SWEEEEET!!!!

I am stoked to see it all done and witness the build :D

 

[JustinsReefTank]

Yeah I'm excited myself!! Just trying to keep reminding myself take your time and do it right the first time. I'm not a very patient person...... So with that being said... I'm proud that I have took the time to do everything so far right and not cut ONE corner.
So I just got off phone with my LFSmand he said its all there. So I'll be back shortly with all the goodies and pics of them also.

I plan on hanging a 4 bulb T-5 fixture over the tank. Same light as one my DT

 

[JustinsReefTank]

Sorry quality is horrible... Just noticed little finger prints on lense.. :frustrat:

 

[ZyberGoby]

It's all good bro looking sharp I wish I was not renting so I could hang my light

 

[JustinsReefTank]

I'm renting too, but it's not nothing to patch a few wholes!! ;)

yeah I don't want to piss off the Nazi land lord if they ever come and finish the plumbing issue in the bathroom. I'm surprised she even let me have my tank I have running right now. i have to say though its way better than having the tank at my mums place it would be only a matter of time before it fell through the floor.

 

[JustinsReefTank]

That would not be good. Well at least u got one.. :)

 

[little_fish]

looks really good!

 

[JustinsReefTank]

So I finally got it filled and got over flow working and got it all started!!:^:
So I got all the salt mixing in there now and I will put LR in sump tomorrow.
And throw a piece of shrimp in there.
Got my pair of ORA clowns today at LFS. They look Beautiful!!! I paid for them and he is gonna hold them for me until tank is fully cycled!

I'm so excited:whoopee!:

 

[Mr.D]

I'm glad to hear you aren't going to put the cf in the tank and it not cycled. +1

 

[JustinsReefTank]

No I would never sacrifice a fish to cycle a tank!! I will do it the right way, with a table shrimp and let it take it's course.

 

[ZyberGoby]

Indeed it all looks and sounds good :D and i for one know you would never do that to a fish friend. Cant wait to see the next step...:Cheers:

 

[JustinsReefTank]

Thanks. Yeah there is no reason to harm an innocent fish to cycle a tank. PATIENCE is the key and I have nothing but time......... So Im doing the right thing.

I have pictures I'm about to upload in a minute and maybe a sneak peek video....
