    Default Just when I thought I was out she pulled me back in

    Ok,so I was out and she was on board !! Until Sunday. I posted some equipment and we we're getting ready to start to bag fish and coral to take to the LFS. Then she dropped the bomb and discovered how weak I really am ! Anyone who knows me I ttruely believe happy wife makes for happy life. After hearing her out about the corals she has had for over ten years I asked the worst question of my life !So what was it ? Well what do you want then dear?? If your wife is a reef geek NEVER ask that !!! So the bin fords are staying I guess. So here's the plan and the official first entry of the dream build. It's not that bad I enjoy setting up the systems. Anyway

    So the 150 and 75 are history !! Going to keep the 40 breeder for a qt and the new tank has been ordered. The tank will be a 48 long by 36 deep by 22 tall with a 18 inch hob over flow with two 1 inch drains. For pumps I will be using two bubble blaster hydro 5000. Each pump will be piped directly to a 3/4 flow inductor each. Flow will be handled by two MP 40's to start and we'll add more if needed tho I doubt we'll need more.


    The fuge will be a glass 36 long by 24 wide by 24 tall. In the fuge I plan to do something diffrent. I plan to incorporate a media /rubble chamber and elevate the live rock off the bottom and there will be no DSb. I plan to also run dual protein skimmers (BK 160 mini's)

    Well that a start of explaining the new plan. Ughhhhh ! I will start the pictures as soon as I start the new stand so to be continued...
