Hi all
I have a 10 gal thats laying around that is drilled with a 3/4" stand pipe..I'll use this with a 10 gal sump/fuge that will have a old CPR bak pak modified with a air stone, & to surface skim direct from the drilled 10 gal stand pipe instead of the old rio.

I have a 175 watt halide and a new 20k bulb laying around as well

I have about 10lbs of Tonga branch, tons of fiji to pic some cheery pieces from & a few large coral heads salvaged for use as bio filtration..I'll probably dump a 4-5" sand bed in the sump/fuge and add 4 types of macro

cant decide whether to make it a sps / clam nano and change the 175 to a 250 or 400 20k later, or make it a rare colorful zoo nano

I'll post pics soon as I decide where to put it

pic of the drilled 10 gal....not only is it empty but it has 1/2 of salt from were all the water evaporated out while it sat abandonded

I may leave it in my 16x20 greenhouse addition..just set it in there on blocks to see how it lit up for fun..probably wont leave it there since I need to finish the greenhouse first
