Oprah Wrangler September 26, 2008 Share September 26, 2008 Hey all, The corals in my 3 gallon have grow so that they are all bumping into one another so I am left with no choice but to up size my desktop beauty. As you see from the title the upgrade is a 8 gallon bio cube and it was filled with water yesterday and now I wait for the cycle to finish. I love testing water so cycling is one of my favorite parts of setting up a system. Well, here are pictures of my rock work and there will be more to come when the coral have moved over.

Oprah Wrangler September 28, 2008 Author Share September 28, 2008 I am not anticipating that the rocks attached the wall will hold on forever. It is the nature of saltwater to decay and/or change the integrity of anything it comes in contact with over time. I wanted something different and nothing ventured is nothing gained. With the current layout, however, if anything from the back gives my glass is in no immediate danger. I think.... Thanks for joining me on this journey.

Oprah Wrangler October 1, 2008 Author Share October 1, 2008 Well, things are on the way. After setting the tank up on Friday, I added 8oz of urine to the system. (yes I know it is strange but it has always worked for me) Today my NH3+4, NO2, and NO3 are through the roof and the diatoms have moved in. I love watching a new system come to life. The waiting game continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
