My first phase was color the back with black paint and design the aquascaping, (any suggestions here). I'm aiming for neat looking rocks that have abundant softies, and probably a few SPS as well.



Here's a photo of the DIY pvc overflow for my tank. It's based on Sir i-Spy's design (thanks bro!) It's 1/2 inch pvc and I'm hoping that it can handle the return water from my Rio 2100.. need advice from experts if this is possible as well. Still looking for acrylic tubing for the surface skimming.



This is it for now, and I'll be updating this from time to time. Thanks for viewing and hope you can provide suggestions as well.

Thanks RP!

Nice start sir. Hope it will do just fine for your reef. Regards to your reef tank sir.

nice bro, nakadikit ba ang mga lr mo o patong patong?

Scrapped the whole 10 gal Aquaone tank and built a new one. This is a 17 gal rimless tank with 15 gal sump built by Mang Ramon. Below are some of the photos taken during the preparation and finally the start of the cycling process. Comments and suggestions are highly appreciated. Hope you'll like the photos.

Just want to share the update on my tank after a few weeks exposed to my DIY LED:

Yellow feather duster and other lps from grahf11


GSP


Cool white pink open brain


Bubble coral (before)


Bubble coral (now)


Sun coral


Plate coral


Blasto and a fat scoly


Purple Gonio


Red mushroom



Bubble magus skimmer from Peter (Aquariatech)


This skimmer is highly recommended. Break-in period didn't last long and it immediately start removing the gunk from my tank.
