Innovative Marine NUVO Fusion 20 Pro
 
Well here I go again. After a couple year break getting back in the hobby. As the title states I am going to be getting an IM fusion 20. Its going to be a slow build but I will be documenting it here.

The one piece of equipment I am still up in the air on is an ATO. I want something I don't have to worry about malfunctioning and flooding my tank. Anyone have any ideas? Or is it still just the Tunze 3155?

Duetto dual -sensor ato works prefect for me. Very small footprint

Thanks for the input I will take a look at what kind of room I have in the back when I get my tank.

Well its going to be a few weeks for a tank to show up, if I am lucky, so I thought I would throw some questions out and see if I could pick the brains of those who still come on here.

I will mostly be keeping SPS in the system and don't really want to start dosing if I don't have too. Is there a particular brand of salt that will help keep my levels with just water changes? either weekly or bi-weekly? Thanks for any help.

Atthe start maybe. But a tank that small you will need to dose so best to get ready for it. Kalk in the ATO is probably the best way to start.

Well made a trip to J&L and picked up a few things.

Still have things coming from Fragbox, Aquarium Depot and Amazon, but things are starting to come together.

Well I got my stand and started to put it together.

Thought I needed to add some reinforcement so added some back support and front support.

I also screwed the shelf in the sides and back to help prevent any movement.

Started throwing all my stuff together. Still waiting on some stuff.

I got my salinity set at 1.025. Just waiting on my cycle to finish up and then the interesting stuff gets to go in.
