Pete's TMC 900 upgrade

[reefpool]

Well hello to everyone been keeping fish for just the 45 years trops first then onto marines about 15 years ago, started with softies then lps then sps gave it a miss for a bit 7 years ago. This is my old tank metal halides x2 400 watts each
So started again with a nano and a hydra 26 hd , had trouble sorting out kh with such a small water volume, eventually got it sorted by having hang on refugium lit night time. Had a few sps including Frags they started to grow. Little pic of my nano

So I was dying to get a bigger tank, little tank full.
Got my tmc 900 off Doug on here . I was originally buying a skimmer and jebao wave maker off him( Doug being the man he is told me the jebao was too big for my new tank )I mentioned I was after a nice tank if he had one just so happened he was selling tmc 900 wow perfect for me , perfect for my girl as I hadn't told her of upgrade and needed it to match kitchen otherwise I'd have no chance of getting it, before I told her and after a great day trip to Chester and me buying her a moschino bag ( phew worked) I bought this off Doug, he is a star couldn't fit stand in my car so he brought the stand to my house, brilliant added the water and bit of rock, so it starts

Bought used bubble magus curve 5 , made my own zeovit reactor, hard piped the tank. I used both cut outs on the tank for drains and added duckbills at each end. I've added a jebao cross flow and used the RW10 I already had. Bought temp controller and two 200w titanium heaters. Used one end of the sump for refugium, added goose neck fitting and 30w led bulb to light it. Added bubble magus float valve for top up water as sump top up very small

Also added the Potters angel, orange shouldered tang, nice lobo or symphillia, nice green bubble, and the mandarin. Been adding Copepods baby brine for anthias , red scooter and mandarin. Really pleased with the tank and how it's coming on. I add aquaforest kh, calcium, and trace elements, manually at the minute got to set up my jebao doser which you can see on my sump pic. Also set up and started my phosphate reactor.
Thanks for looking Pete
