6 tangs are you crazy

thank you it about time someone said something lol

Well I'll say it looks good. :biggrin:

I think the pest you were referring to is mojano? (maybe?)

ya the rock is coverd with pests im in for a battle im sure it has cyano aptasia etc etc

just starting to follow this thread i need to know where the heck do you get a 90 gallon cylinder tank from anyhow?? now i want one:twised:

Yeah, that cylinder looks pretty cool. I'll tag along on this thread.

That makes two of us.

sweet and aqua giant is were the tank is from you would not belive the way it was plumed before i got it im going too try and find pics.. it used too come off the overflow down too an elbow too a spray bar that was a foot from the sump it sounded like a waterfall lol

you find me a 90 gal or bigger bowfront and ill trade ya lol

some more pics for you guys I hooked up my ro unit its going too do top offs and my water changes
the ro unit itself got it for 50 buck

the rubbermade and float that the ro unit feeds

The saddle valve that I used too tap into my water supply. Probably the scaryist moment in this house i was afraid it was going too **** water everywere http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w...addlevalve.jpg

oh and the tds meter reading 140 in i dont know if thats bad anybody want too let me know?http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w...ter/tds140.jpg

140 isn't too bad for most of Alberta, I've heard of much higher in Calgary.

This picture frightens me. The way that you have that float valve mounted on that tank just doesn't look secure to me. If the float valve were to float upward and rotate or flip, you would just keep feeding water until something bad happened. I think you would be better off just bulkheading that float switch directly into the tank wall.

there is weight in that basket thing too keep it from doing that i agree with you though if i had room in the sump it would be in there but i had to squish the maxi jet in there for the phos ban reactor and that was the last of the room in there

after tons of reading i hate too say it but i have lots of majano in my tank it sounds like the only way too really get rid of them is too tear the tank down and cook the live rock. There are too many too just pick them off the rock so thats out of the question anyone have any ideas?

just a little update i have tons of algae in my tank so im in dire need of a cleanup crew and i like adding pics now that i know how lol


my rics that i will probably just give too my brother seeing i want too go sps

hey man i wish i had 140 for TDS reading. mine in Brandon, Manitoba is 800

what holy crap ok i feel better

I love these cylinder tanks, I think they are very cool!

Can you fill me in on how all your lights and pumps etc are plugged in! Thats a great looking tank. i've been wanting to put my tank in the middle of the room but am still working on hiding all the cords.

thats telfords tank and i would be interested in that info as well

That tank has a center overflow, I'll bet they are plugged into power bars underneath the tank and run off of one cord.

ha ha thats awsome i never though of that although it kinda scares me running power threw the overflow

LOL all submersible equipment and cords scares me. :lol: I was soooo scared when I got my first submersible heater years ago.

I just thought about it and theres a chance that there's a plug-in on the floor below the tank, I'd be worried about running a long extension cord across the room to power the tank myself.

Thats what I assumed, but there is still the outlet on the floor, under 80 gallons of water issue! Maybe through a hole in the floor then plugged somewhere higher! huh huh!
