    A Golden Reef Tank

    I have to say this build looks like a lot of fun... I am hoping in the next year to start a build similar to yours. I am definitely tagging on to learn and get inspired.

I know she has been asking for a storage (shelving unit) for our dining room (to place our stem ware and all the other miscellaneous dishes) so I was thinking about placing the tank...

    I was at Lowes and I saw an acrylic like pipe holder for walls and I was thinking of silicon the flat pieces to the bottom of the tank and having tube running through to hold it down. Thought about actually splitting the tube under sand and having one on each side of the far side the tank. Was...

    So I am having a problem picking a pump due to the fact that I am not using a sump and over flow system but using an All in one set up. Should I still look at deciding a pump the same way I would with that set up with wanting the flow to be 3x to 5x my DT size? if so with the pipe laying flat...

    I don't know Peppie, I went to one tournament in Oregon where the team who won the tournament was awarded a hand carved red cedar Frisbee that was a replica of the ones they were selling at the tournament (normal plastic ones) haha That was a pretty heavy disc.

    Still deciding on the pump I was going to start looking into that and trying to figure out if the 115 had the tube or not... When I saw the 33L I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it because of the nice length and skinnyness of the tank... Then I got on here and you had actually been doing...

    New Tank Design So I came up with a new design as said earlier I feel this set up will be a more efficient way of using the AIO feature. I have it set up like a sump inside the tank. Check out the attached picture and would love the imput

    Building my own AIO 33 Long

    So was just doing some research on how a sump could work? I am drawing up some plans now but the way it would work is having a T with a valve to control how much flow goes into the refugium... The refugium will be raised off the floor and will have a drain pipe into the lower section which is...

    Building my own AIO 33 Long

    Yeah that is what I was thinking. I am going to head to the lfs here who have a 29g Biocube with the HQI set up and was going to see how the filter is set up in there. I just know if I have the Skimmer section before the Refugium section it is going to take all the nutrients needed for the...
