Okies I bought a 90 gallon setup today off of craigslist it came with
Berlin Sump
Power compact lights 50/50 with moon lights
Red Sea Berlin Skimmer
Oak Cabinet and Canopy
Enihem 825 gph pump
100 Gpd RO/DI Filter.
2 Heaters
5 Power heads
3 Timers
I stopped at the LFS Picked up
5 gallons of premix water
50 pounds of instant ocean
5 pounds of Cured live rubble and 15 pounds of Base Rock (They are cooking in my sump will move to a bucket tomorrow)
I installed the RO/DI and put the tank up. and Blue Backing on the tank. I will begin filling it in the AM (I am not a plumber so I want to let it run under supervision tomorrow)
I plan to fill tank add salt and let set for 2 weeks. Kinda blown my wad today so gotta wait till next payday to add more Live rock.
Here are pictures of the tank as it sits.
Day-2
I plumbed all the parts hung a light in the bottom of my cabinet I used an
Flukers 24 inch combo light has both an 18 inch fluorescent and a 40 watt incandescent bulb.( This I had extra from my older light setup for my turtle tank) It has UVA and UVB bulbs not sure what I would do with the separate spectrum's hehe.
Hung the timers on the wall on the inside of the cabinet got all my permanent wires out of the way all nice and neat.
The tank is about half full of water now...RO/DI is so slow
I have a heater a bubbler in my sump those are the wires in the included picture so it still looks a bit messy.
