No, I'm going to start without the head. Maybe buy it later if needed.

I only have two questions.

1. Are there any openings.
2. How do I apply!!

thanks for keeping us updated.

updatess :)

Arnar 04/30/2007 11:07 AM

Deltec have delayed the delivery date of the tank a little saying that due to them moving offices/plant and that they haven't received the bottom glass they have to add few weeks :(

In other news I have been sketching a little trying to get some idea on how to arrange the rock work.

I like canyons, coves and caves and I want to have a feeling of depth and also equally amounts of sand and rock for good feng shui ;)

i like the aquascaping arnar i too like open spaces and canyons

Haab 04/30/2007 01:19 PM

wow :eek1:

cbui2 04/30/2007 02:04 PM

ok that's sweet, what ballast and bulbs will you be using for lumenarc III reflectors? also will the light canopy hold any fans to help any cooling. would it be better for redundancy to run two smaller skimmer maybe 2 AP1004 or AP1003, same goes for reactors too.

Arnar 04/30/2007 02:29 PM

cbui2: I'll be running Coralvue ballasts and Reeflux 10k 400w bulbs. I have an extra Deltec AP 703 skimmer rated for ~900 gallon and a smaller Deltec calcium reactor for redundancy :)

Arnar 05/11/2007 01:07 PM

Just got a nice package today :)

It's the BiotopusII computer from Elos, Italy.

[IMG]http://farm1.static.flickr.com/222/493850536_61f78d8a23.jpg[/IMG]

Going to test this with my little aquarium at home until the big one arrives which should hopefully be soon.

Bax 05/11/2007 01:44 PM

ooooH!

That's pretty nifty!

I like the aquascape plan too!

GSMguy 05/11/2007 02:21 PM

that controller is fancy :)


very nice.

thirschmann 05/12/2007 03:22 PM

Nice sketchs, did you make them on sketchup? If so, how did manage to get the rocks to look so natural. When I try they always come out to geometric.

Thanks

Arnar 05/12/2007 06:40 PM

Thanks!

I can send you the rock model if you like. You just copy/paste and rotate at will ;)

...and how was the hernia operations for the three of you afterwards? Like they say, misery loves company :lol: But I'm guessing your tank was acrylic, because a tank that thick and that large would be much too heavy for 3 people to lift unless you guys are all weightlifters.

Dudester 05/13/2007 07:48 PM

Gorgeous, can't wait to see this take shape! What features attracted you to the Elos controller? Did you consider Aquatronica?
