VERY NICE ...
Great job keep up the great work. Interested to see and update
This is beautiful, I can't wait to see this Elos tank as it develops. Absolutely beautiful keep up the amazing work Fishnugget. My dream is a 160 XL one day I'll get there lol [emoji23] amazing job.
Very cool setup!
Very nice setup!! Do you mind sharing which lights you are using for under the cabinet? Also have you decided on which light you are getting for the display?
Happy for you, happy to see her just like I imagined.
I'm curious what you used for the red/white plumbing
I love the light fixture over the tank absolutely beautiful , amazing light to have over a beautiful tank, perfect match [emoji108][emoji12][emoji1303]
Thanks Mwells, It took me a while to get all the equipment because the bigger, the more expensive. Glad it has fulfilled your expectations so far.
Home Depot sells the red PVC. They have all different sizes and its very inexpensive. I got about 6ft of 1"red plumbing for 10 bucks! The other places, BRS, charge an arm and a leg for the same plumbing.
This thing is nice to look at and well built. You can tell because it is heavy. I have to admit the programming has been a lot easier than GHL Mitras or Vertex Illumina.
Thanks I'll for sure look into that... because like you said the BRS stuff is way more expensive. Also where'd you get the lighting for underneath the stand? Do you know exactly what it is, if so that'd be very helpful!
I just love love love waking up and reading up on builds like this...simplicity amazing!!!
I have finished completing most of my 40 breeder transfer of inhabitants to my Elos 160XL. I added an Aqua UV 57 watt sterilizer to help with algae/water clarity. Since I have turned it on about 12 hrs + I have not noticed a difference with water clarity. My water was already clear to begin with I believe from N0POX. I will report any results. It does make my sump look a bit more cluttered with the tubing, I may buy red or hard plumb to make it look cleaner, any suggestions welcome.
I did lose a Copper Band Butterfly, my Potters Angel kept harassing it. I had purposely left my blue tang in the 40 breeder to keep it from harassing the CBB but the Potters assumed that role. I decided I may hold off on a CBB. I have added a yellow coris wrasse, blue cleaner wrasse, and decided to add the blue tang back in. I will probably purchase a red flame hawk fish when I can find one. My Calcium Reactor Geo 618 or 624 (can't tell) is also online.
I still need my light fixture and still need to clean up the wires. I am waiting for my Royal Exclusive Controller pump holder to clean up the wires.
As I am typing we almost had an outage, dope! (that can't be good for my UV lamp)
Here are some pics of my UV Sterilizer mounted it seems a lot of people don't post pics of this. I bought the hangers at Lowes and were much cheaper than the 15 dollar clips aqua UV sells.
Love how this tank is shaping up so far mate! I like what you say about keeping it simple as I try to achieve that ideology as well.
Let's see those updates man!
what is the name of those hangers? do you have a link to them? also for your uv filter are you running it as recommended to just clear up water or as a true uv filter that kills everything that passes thru it? think you need like 2,200-2,500 gph flow thru that 57 watt uv to not kill everything in the water column..
Nice system, love the look of this tank brand.
