    Journey to my 120 begins

    Yes I rushed to get it going before work. Now it’s good to go has a full siphon and not that noisy anymore. I know it’s going to make a little more noise than normal because I plan on setting up the pump through my Neptune and have it run a few different programs which will most likely cause it...

    Copy that. I know I threw 2 bottles of Dr Tims one amd only in the brute when I stored rock last year. Not sure if that survived though over the year since I didn’t do anything else to the rock but leave it in saltwater.

    Need quick response before gluing rock with foam

    I used the white loctite foam. It worked out great. After spraying I put special grade Caribsea on and now it looks like part of the rock. It totally secured my structure in places where the rocks were not so stable, when it expands it creates a cradle.

    So water is in tank is running and skimmer is foaming! Hopefully that stops soon Going to slowly start transferring Neptune stuff from 40 to this tank. Just trying to get all other misc stuff in order before I start. Then I have to tear down my AIO tank and put fish in here.

    I’m at work until 10. Remainder of tank filled this morning. No leaks at least from what i saw before leaving for work. I’ll know more when I get home. As far as filter it is loud as hell. Needs adjusting but I know after I mess with it I should be able to silence it. Using the herbie style...

    Need quick response before gluing rock with foam

    Yeah that’s always a nice touch. I’ve been trying to find a place that sells it. Algaebarn never carries it.

    Need quick response before gluing rock with foam

    I left a lot of center space if I choose to isolate something. But I can’t wait for this to be done so I can put my ACAN colonies in. They are crammed in my 40 right now

    Need quick response before gluing rock with foam

    Looking for pros and cons with this aqua scape I left the room around the whole tank for flow there’s enough coverage even with a center brace where there will be no shadowing what are you guys think should I change anything. This is all live rock so I don’t want to remain dry too long

    Well I think today is the day fingers crossed. Making as much saltwater as I can to fill tank so rocks are covered. So far I have about 75 gallons made.

    Yes it has been in a Brute with saltwater for over a year and my buddy also has live rock curing in a large tank for even longer that. He was nice enough to give me some really nice pieces. He let me pick out of it and I got this really nice piece of shelf rock. I may start aquascaping tomorrow...

    120 gallon upgrade

    Dragons breath grows but slow. For some reason it is being taken over by GHA. I have a smaller tank attached in the back of this which is growing Chaeto and caulerpa. That’s doing great.

    120 gallon upgrade

    Yeah I did the sock thing for a very short time. They clog very fast. Now I only use a sponge before my pump. Nothing else.
