Talking New tank up and running!

Well the move was long and exhausting but the tank looks amazing. I need to touch up the stand, add some doors and a canopy and it's good to go. I bought this 75g tank from reeferhigh.

Here are some pictures.

















Thanks again to Scubasteve and Reefer High.

idk if you have one or not, but this was sold to me by robert at eco reef. he said it came from chris's tank, and i think he said it was a leg sy, it was very very green, and then it lost color when i had some issues with my tank, now that theyve been fixed, its been getting more purple and greener by the day, i think in about 2 weeks it will be nice and green again,

want a piece or you gonna wait till you get rid of the nudis?

Nice buy the stand looks high which makes the tank stand out. I noticed that your last two tanks on RC are T5's, I just purchased 2 IC 660 myself and some new really nice T5 bulbs including the new Fiji Purple and Red Spectrum from KZ. I am planning a 90g but the 75g has an easier to take care dimensions. GOOD LUCK WITH IT.

Looking good. LOL, I got my T5 Teks on wood boards above my tank too. The legs for the Tek are more than I wanted to spend.

db_triggerfish, I love the fiji purple bulb, whats KZ? Is there a place local for T5 bulbs?

kz= Korallen-Zucht

No, i have not seen them locally, only from this website:

http://www.zeovitusa.com/mm5/merchan...y_Code=T5Bulbs

home page translated into English i am also looking into their expensive chemical and vitamin treatments zeovit, but price may keep me away. I don't want a full blown sps tank too expensive so i would like just a few very colorful show pieces and zeovit tanks seem to have better colors.

Thanks for all the great comments.

I will be selling some of the equipment that was also included with it that I don't need. Shot me a pm if your interested.

1/3 hp chiller w/ thermostat and mag 5.

Ro/di unit, 4 stage comes with new filters, needs a di and membrane. I think it's a maxima ro/di unit but not sure.

aqua clear skimmer. Not sure the size or model but it comes with a rio 800.

Thanks again

-Matthew

Hey Matt, the tank looks good. Great deal, glad you were able to jump on it.

BTW, if Darcy doesn't need that mag5 with the chiller, I might be interested in it.
