    kevin's 50g to 75g upgrade !

    haha. 75g is plenty for now! Thanks! Yesterday I finished filling the tank & mixed the salt. I put some live rock, live sand, & a sponge that's been sitting in my sump into the tank. Poured a few bottles of Dr's tims.. Now I wait & test.

    kevin's 50g to 75g upgrade !

    I couldn't pass up on a deal for a stand/sump/tank from Xavier a few weeks ago. The good thing is, I can set this up while my 50g is still running. Over the past week in & half I've ordered a bunch of stuff. I shimmed & plumbed the tank. Ran regular water through it Monday to test for leaks...

    Leveling a tank help

    I've never did this before. I bought composite wood/plastic shims. I have it leveled on the sides, but the front is not level. If I put the level on the actually tank itself on the sides or front it is not level. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Left side stand Left side Tank...

    Do you mean you're not very computer savvy? The APEX has a very well (unofficial) written user guide you can check out here; http://reeftech.webs.com/Apex%20New%20User%20Guide.pdf

    Thanks for all the input. That pipe was holding up the rest of the piping so it didn't stress it. I'll try to check home depot today. It says those pipe hangers are NOT in my local stores. I was able to glue it all last night.

    Well, I purchased a brand new SWC 120 last week before I new I was getting an upgraded tank. Which I am actually selling. (I'm not trying to make a sales pitch here, I swear, lol) My 18g skimmer section was small.. so I needed a smaller footprint skimmer...

    Reef Controller

    Right now I have a 50g with 18g sump running a Bubble Magus 3.5. It seems to be a little under powered. I'm putting together a 75g w/ 40gallon sump(which I'm finishing the plumbing today). I haven't chosen a skimmer for it yet. That's the last thing I need. I believe I might be going with a...

    edit: Do you mean the ball valve? or the fuge pipe that will have holes in it?

    75g upgrade; advice, guidance & suggestions.

    I've never shimmed a tank before. The tank is not level. If I shim it & then I fill the tank, will it then be off level again? How does this plumbing look? I'm going to drill holes like Xavier said in that pipe in the fuge area and keep that pipe submerged. I ran out of PVC parts. I'm...
