Thanks for following along! I will update this evening with some new purchases!

Just got my first Vortech MP10. Very excited! It seems to be pretty awesome so far. One of the main reasons I picked it up is the amount of real estate the Hydor 850 took up. I'm going to pick up another Vortech in a few weeks and run it on anti sync.

I also picked up a few more coral's.

Nice build, I love the rockscape. Kudos on the vortech, I upgraded not to long ago to a pair of mp40s on my 90g and love them. Definitely following!!!!

Thanks for following along and for the kind words. There is definitely a sticker shock on these powerheads, but they definitely do a great job! Do you have a build thread?

 

[kdpuffer]

Ya I have a 90g rr build thread.

Nice build I will follow for what is left. I have a 75 gal in wall my main mistake was not making an access panel for the front it's a little tougher doing it all from the back of the tank.

This is what I have done so far

Nice tank! I made an access panel and ordered some specialty stays for it, but need to makes some changes for it to work right. I knew from the beginning that not having one would be a pain. Thanks for following along!

You should paint the back so you can't see through.

 

[FrankAbagnale]

Yeah I think it would make your tank POP a lot more.

I normally have a black backround, I was working on tank today. If I were to paint it I really would have a hard time doing stuff lol. It does look a lot better with the background. I'll post pic when I'm done playing around back there

I'm in the process of doing the Same as you guys. I was wondering what color would be best to paint the back?? What would u recommend black?

Black or blue are the usual colors.

Seems like a lot of people use Krylon Fusion spray paint.

 

[kdpuffer]

Personal I like black, it allows the color of the fish and coral to really show.

Nothing really new happening with the tank. I have a phosphate issue and will probably pick up a GFO reactor tomorrow. I'm a little concerned about my alkalinity. Has been at 6.5. Thinking of picking up some Kalk for my ATO. I'm probably going to go ahead and pull the trigger on another MP10w tomorrow as well.

 

[FrankAbagnale]

Picked up some new coral from a local guy yesterday!

 

[FrankAbagnale]

And another...
