Half way full means you plan or are adding more and half way empty means you plan or are reducing the amount. -_- And I am about to upgrade my 10 gallon salt tank to a 20 gallon long :D

Where did you get that lid/hood for the 10 gallon tank?

Ricks Reef - 6 years ago

petco or petsmart have standard 10 gallon glass lids.

What kind of lighting?

Ricks Reef - 6 years ago

Finnex FugeRay Marine+ LED: http://amzn.to/2q4cfO1 this is the new one. the original that was on the 10 gallon was a curretusa marine.

what are the dimensions on your tank? Where did you get your hood? and what kind of light is do you have? on your 20

Ricks Reef - 7 years ago

The tank is a standard 20 gallon size, not sure of the exact measurements. The hood I bought at either petco or petsmark, it's a glass one. The light in the video is a CurrentUSA marine light. I also have a Finnex ray 2 on the original 10 gallon tank in the video.

Did you have a power head in your 10 gallon? Just wondering bc I'm getting stuff together for my first marine tank and I wondered if I have to have a powerhead for a 10 gallon?

Dom Blankenship - 7 years ago

do you have to have a sump in a 20 gallon tank?

+jordan stevens (Jaybaby10) on my ten gallon i use a kessil a160we and that thing puts out more light than I've ever seen its great. Keeps all my corals happy at about 25 percent intensity

+jordan stevens (Jaybaby10) i was using a 4 bulb t5ho hybrid with leds inside as well by current USA but i took down the 20 Long after about 3 months i just didn't like it as much as my ten gallon

Jordan Stevens - 8 years ago

what light do you use

JamesAquariumz - 8 years ago

Ooooooh, I see your fancy stand is FINALLY getting used to its potential.

Also, that GSP looks absolutely fantastic. I can't believe people go about trying to get rid of it.

Ricks Reef - 8 years ago

+Andreas Chryseliou I love the GSP. My plan is to have as much as I can in the new tank.

Cool

The 10 gallon looks very nice !

Carson Anderson - 8 years ago

Why not cycle your dry rock in a 5 gallon bucket and drill your tank before setting up the sump for a cleaner look

Also a painted back will hide the cord wires

Happy reefing

Carson Anderson - 8 years ago

You could order the kit from glass-holes.com it takes the guess work out of buying parts. also seen a company that makes a drop in all in one kit search (badassreefkits) makes your tank a peninsula style or oversized fluval spec v :-)

Im working on a 20 l project to actually split a 20 long in half with a center overflow with half DT and half display fuse.

Ricks Reef - 8 years ago

+Carson Anderson I am considering drilling the tank just b/c I hate the overflow box in the tank. I've never drilled a tank before so I'm watching all the 'how to' vids now. thx.

BigShow - 8 years ago

wow nice job man love you and more video pls :)

Ricks Reef - 8 years ago

+Shell Dwellers Fish Thanks. Look for more vids soon.
