Tank Build

Joel, I'll give it a try it it screws up I'll drop something else in.  I've used azoo power heads on my nano and never had any issues.  I've been reading some bad things about Ebo Jager heaters lately and it seems like everythings up in the air as far as equipment goes.  I wanted to get won pro heat titanium, I've used them before, and it was great.  But F&S doesn't sell them and shipping's been eating me alive so that's why I went with it.

All heaters are junk and none are to be trusted. It is probably one of the best reason to get an aquacontrollerI guess I need to read up on aqua controller's.  I'll probably pick one up in the future.

 

sorry for being O.T. but I think I might get a AC too. not that I'll ever use some of it but the built in safeties will make being away much less worrisome. Your tank is looking like it is coming together. If you need a hand with anything feel free to call.

 

I painted the plexiglas background, I finished the plumbing, I mount the american dj power switch.  I checked with premium aquatics, they'll be shipping shipping lights starting tomorrow, so hopefully I'll get the lights early next week, unless mine come in a later shipment.  I'm gonna start filling it tomorrow, finally

 

Here's a pic

 

I want to buy something to route my power cords (keep the out of the way)  to the American DJ power supply.  Any suggestions?

 

Thank's Sone, I'll check them out

 

Al, Check HomeDepot/Menards or Lowes in the electrical department. Some have the electrical races that go in starter panels. They are like a 2" plastic C channel with a front cover. They are very easy to use and very easy to get a cord out if needed.

 

I'll check them out, I go to Lowes almost everyday, been spending most of my time in the plumping and hardware areas.

 

The tanks filling, I started lasted night at around 7:30.  It's about half full.

Does that sump keep the water level the skimmer pump is sitting in constant?
Yes, the only area that varies is in the return chamber.

 

i had a heater fail 5 years ago on a 29 reef i had lost it all

 

Yes it's going back there. If it's going to be a problem I guess I could create something out of acrylic to put in there.

 

jtesdall said he doesn't care for Azoo heaters, I'm inclined to agree with him.  It is hard to adjust, it doesn't have a thermo sensor like my won pro heat did.  I'm would like to get a won pro heat 200, but all I can find is the 50's and the digital 1000 costs $149.00.
