I'm back...34g solana rimless cube

[dailydriven911]

Looks great. I guess now its time to quit tinkering and let them corals grow.

Just need a better skimmer and then I'll be done! (For awhile at least)

 

[dailydriven911]

Wow that looks sweet man, you definitely have enough light now! Will you need a chiller?:D

I hope not I'm using a 6" fan for the time being but I'm looking into a dual fan setup that clamps to the back of the tank.

what skimmer are you thinking about getting? Do you know if the Tunze nano will fit?

Thanks to Roscoe and DisturbedReefer I decided to upgrade my lighting... I went w/ a 250w DE Stealth Mini Lumenarc. I'm now running the reeflux 12k on an icecap 250w hqi ballast. I'm loving this setup! I can now really enjoy the rimless part of the tank...:lol: I found a perfect piece of aluminum at work and had it welded in an "L" shade. I then had it powdercoated black to match my stand and new light. I'm very pleased with how it turned out... Here are a few pics I took tonight...

That looks SWEET! I really like the look of a clean stealth over a rimless tank! Makes me want to clean mine up even more I have someone that is going to build an aluminum stand for me that will have a light bracket incorporated...my future lighting will be the Sfiligoi Infinity XR6- HQI 1 x 250 watt with T5 and Moonlights....but I need to sell a lot more houses, those suckers are like $1400.00 ouch! Until that time I will trade out the regular mini lumenarc for the stealth. Your tank is looking great,before long you will be contacting AO for a 60g rimless cube

Hey- I was looking at that last pic, are both your intake and return from your reactor in the last chamber? Where do you have your JBJ ATO at?

Todd you don't have to trade out your lumenarcs for a stealth. All the stealth is just the cover to go over the lumenarcs . Here is a link where you can get the SE stealth cover for $25 bucks.

I want to go w/ the deltec mce300 or 600. It's a hob unit but it's quite pricey. I may wait for a used one to pop up.

Looking good Jayson! looks like the tank is much much brighter.

Thanks Todd! I would also go the same route your thinking if I could only afford it:lol: Also with my cube only being 20" wide I'm limited to lighting setups, especially halide/t5 combo lighting. In time I will go with an AO cube most likely a 120 or 140 gallon cube. That won't be for some time though.

You gotta check it out it's much brighter. Light now penetrates the entire cube not just the front and middle of the tank. I'll give you a call when I'm off of work.

yeah, I feel ya on the price...I won't be making that big jump for some time though...because of the price At this point that is just on the wish list A 36x36x24 AO rimless would be sweet!

No problemmo

 

[dailydriven911]

Some better pics I took today...I'm actually really loving the reeflux 12k bulb

 

[roscoe]

Yeah I like mines. Your tank is looking nice.

 

[dailydriven911]

Your right too I'm actually not having any heat issues. My temp hovers between 79.5 and 80.5 degrees with the 6" fan.
