  1. Thanks.. I really enjoyed my birthday yesterday.. Yeah definitely agree that 1 gyre won't be sufficient since I'm intending to keep more corals this time.. I currently still have a couple of wave makers in my 3ft tank and will probably bring them over to the 6ft..
  2. Thanks for your support.. And yeah the balcony is huge but the rest of the unit is small..
  3. Hey thanks for the advice.. Yeah I agree with you and will be placing biological filter media in the sump..
  4. Hey thanks guys for your support. Really hope that this tank would be a success.
  5. Hey guys! This is my 1st tank thread in SRC! I've kept a 3ft reef tank for many years and finally gotten the chance to upgrade to a larger tank. This thread is mainly to document and share the progress of my tank, I hope you guys enjoy the tank build and all advises are appreciated. These are the specifications of the new tank: Tankmaker: Vincent from Aquarium Artist. Display tank: 6ft x 2ft x 2ft (12mm glass on the back and left view, 12mm crystal glass on the front and right view). Sump tank: 5ft sump tank with 4 compartments. Cabinet: Done by my ID. Equipment: Light: 3 x AI Hydra 52 with AI Director Return pump: DP11 Skimmer: Skimz SM 203 Wave maker: 1 x Maxspect Gyre XF150 Chiller: Daikin Compressor Chiller Carbon reactor: Bubble Magus Mini 80 Filter Zeolite reactor: Bubble Magus Zeolite cast Media used: OF Pro Series Bio Filter Medium Marine Pure Blocks Still unsure if I will go ahead and use the media, as I will be starting up with zeovit and it states that bio media are not required. Substrate: Sand: Carib Sea Aragamax Select white Dry Sand Rocks: Dried Rocks General Tank Overview Should look like this when completed. The bare tank and sump. Position of the tank will be by the balcony. ID's carpenter boxing the tank up today. The tank cabinet should be completed soon. Looking forward to adding water and cycling the tank. Its my birthday today and what a great day I'm having! Thanks for viewing and stay tuned for updates on the progress.
