Finally: Uprading to 120g Reef - Build Thread

[Unicorn]

Currently in the car driving back from fish shopping: 6 line wrasse, tail spot blenny (boyfriends choice), and a baby tux urchin. Sadly they were out of b/g chromis and their b/w clowns were already sold and were on hold

Here are some picks but not very good ones
6 line wrasse is never holding still

BTW the tank is cloudy due to pistol shrimp stirring up all the sand...

 

[coffeetwitch]

Urkel the urchin found some Nice cloths to wear and he is pooping like crazy LOL

Also, look who showed up? Everybody's favorite algae bloom hope it'll die down soon

I LOVE the six-line wrasse, very beautiful fish, and every one I've seen at my LFS has been super active. I'll be getting one for sure when my tank's cycled. Nice score on the new fishies

 

[coffeetwitch]

Hahaha. Too funny.

Dunno, there actually is a math behind it but my wild guess is: it's not big enough?! Did anybody say it's not gonna work? I have a mag 7 with two 1 1/4 overflows... But I had to turn my ball valves to 1/4 open (3/4 closed)... Dont know if ur overflow is big enough, but I would think it is...?! Dunno


And thank you

Did a 15g water change yesterday and tested the levels this morning (12hrs later) and they are great:
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0

Will check pH, dKH, calcium and all that later today after school

The algae bloom is crazy, have carbon and Rawa Phos in the sump

Also ordered my CUC today. Went with the 55g Quick crew with hermits and added 2 more emerald crabs and some more cheato sadly he was out of ulva, but will order it once it's back on the list
