Made a new door stained it and it's ready to go! I'm going to silicone the inside and waterproof it tomorrow and I'm also going add the frame for the reflectors to the hood .

I ordered some aragonite reef flakes sand and they are huge ! Looks almost like gravel ?My kid has been sick and everything stopped for a bit but today I got all the plumbing done ,lights hooked up doors set up and I am just waiting on the return pump to come in. Also working on the aqua scape I'm thinking a minimal amount of rock I guess I'm going to be playing around with rock setups this weekend !

I was thinking minimal rock as I plan to leave room for the fish but does this look to open ?

210 aggressive tank build!

Since its fish only have lots of rock with caves and arches so fish can swim around.

Why so much reef equipment for a fo tank? No need for high levels of light or zeo. All the light is going to add to algae problems. In general you run a higher bio load in a fo bc fish aren't as sensitive to organics and you run low light so you don't have to worry about algae.
