My mixed tank is full, full (2700 x 600 x 600)
I'm really, really keen to build a cube that will mainly be SPS & LPS dominated! Then the bigger tank I can keep softies etc with more angelfish and the likes!
I wanna do this properly so need best advice from you guys!
So far my thoughts:
DT- 800 x 800 x 700height with a water level of 600 to allow for surface wave action. Total water volume before LR 384L (DT only!)
Glass - 15mm all around rimless at the top
I'm thinking 3 side views with the back being in black and overflow across this whole panel.
Stand - think I'm gonna do a timber treated stand, with a black cabinet
Sump - debating the natural DSB sand ,LR & Chaeto vs Zeo or a combo!?
Hardware - Skimmer rated about 600 - 800L ( advice?)
Reactors for Calcium, Kalk stirrer, phos & Carbon RO unit and small chiller coz I'm using LED's
Waterflow - I do not want my 3 view sides to show any cables etc so on the back panel thinking of maybe vortechs??
On top of the rimless DT I would like to go without a cabinet and have a Mazarra LED lighting unit.
Please guys I really wanna make sure I do this right!
My aim is neat, neat, and best way to utilise space in the sump.
I collect my own NSW so don't need mixing chambers!
Advice appreciated
