Got mine from BRS came in four days(sorry LFS this covid had my SO shook and so me
Locked down)
Well we are live and running.
Still waiting on a few things in the mail but my light got here today. Which is awesome but a shame as well really thought I would save money on this build by using my old ai primes from my last build, this did not turn out to be the case. So I got an aiprime16hd
Nutrient export
Skimmer which I'm leaving off for a few weeks, and I'm gonna ditch the filter sock as soon as I get a media rack for the back chamber. Then I will switch out various medias with what is needed at the time.
And weekly 5 gallon water changes which I hope to automate soon. Unforseen circumstances set me back on this for the time being.
Still need to split the return so as to have one pointing behind rock work.
Now for nutrient exports there's one thing that I have not ran yet and was thinking about with this tank. Macro algae reactor what you guys think??
Still have some wire managment left but waiting to install some equipment still so waiting for that.
Why I need that screen top to get here!!! Thats with my old ai prime on top that I thought would work!!

You know this 99 bucks can't go wrong imo
Perfect fit IMO. yes it has the curve I think intlooks better than flush.
Anyone looking for a stand for the waterbox 20 pm for better pics to know if you would like it.

Looks great! If you are using the Tunze 9001 skimmer I sold you, I would hook it up and get it running now. They put out a lot of microbubbles until they break in, which can take up to a couple of weeks. You might as well start the clock on that now. It won't skim much of anything, but will contribute to keeping your dissolved O2 up while the tank is cycling...

The curve looks good. $298 for a new starphire glass tank and stand is awesome.

Thanks for the reply I'm hoping for no cycle. kinda need no cycle (I have live stock)
I used sand and live rock from my tank that busted a leak that tank was well established 4+ years I also took a few sponges that had
been in old tank since day 1.
I'm sure the skimmer will not do anything to the cycle but I'm being extra cautious atm
