The title says it all...I ran out of things to do with the bigger tank so I thought, why not rebuild the 20 gallon in my office? I kept the same dimensions and didn't go with a cube because then I would have to get another stand.
I had Matt custom build me a 3/4" rimless with a 10gallon sump. He threw in a sock holder which is nice. I had the overflow box built on the outside with two 1" drains. I figure I am going to try the Herbie Method so that things can be quiet just like my sumpless 20 I have now. Here is the list of things I am planning on doing.
20 gallon 3/4" Acrylic Rimless
10 gallon sump
Bubble Magus NAC3 Skimmer
1260 Return Pump
18 LEDs DIY Light Fixture.
9 Cree cool whites
9 Cree royal blues
I will be putting in the order for this in a few days. I have to find time to switch over to the new tank first.
I also plan on splitting the return and make a manifold out of the return line.
that way I can put 2-3 valves on there for media and fish acclimation
On to the pictures....
This little skimmer is impressive...looks similar to my bubble king that I paid a fortune for. let's hope it works the same....the reviews says it does.
For $100, I can really complain though>>>
Nice details.....flow control meter that my BubbleKing didn't have
More to come later in the week....
