Hey guys , this is my first large sized aquarium haha ! It came in on Monday , 05/12/14
When it first came in...
There were some water stains and algae spots so i decided to clean it with vinegar and washing it a few times . Sadly though , as this is a 2nd hand tank
the glass had numerous scratches but ... mehhh
The tankset also comes with life sand and live rock (I think their dead by now)
So after many hours of washing ...
such a mess...
But it was worthwhile...
These are not permanent lights though .... Im planning to get this one
As for equipments , im using a sunsun return pump and a bubble magus curve 7 protein skimmer. Will be getting a dosing pump and a Hailea HC-500A soon ..
That aside , I did encounter some issues with the tank , other than the scratches , the overflow drainpipe's silicone was wearing off and was leaking . Unfortunately , I've already filled up the tank , ( didn't notice the leak ) with salt water ... Lucky thing is , the leak flows directly into my sump tank , but im afraid the silicone might one day give way and .. boom flooding in the house ...
DId anyone encounter this problem and manage to solve it ? If so please do teach me XD
