New Tank. New Site

Hello everyone - I've lurked for years, and finally now that I've
settled down a bit am in the process of setting up a tank. In addition
to the tank, I'll be keeping a log of progress at
http://www.cubereef.com and would be happy to see people visiting that
as the tank progresses.

The specs:
2x2x2" 60G Acrylic cube with center overflow
20G Sump (for now - remote 50g sump project nearly done)
250W 10K Metal Halide
110W Actinic PCs
Jeff's Exotic Fish Skimmer (not sure which one, very effective)
Silent One return pump
4 Maxijet Powerheads on Red Sea wave maker
1/10HP JBJ Chiller
Kent Maxxima RO/DI

85lbs Tonga Rock from Jeff's (absolutely gorgeous)
5 inch Carib-Sea argonite, half "live", half dry


The tank is cycled, but won't start having full light cycles until I
finish my remote sump project, where I'm putting a new sump in the
garage and turning the 20g sump into a refugium. Looking forward to
having my own "fishroom", as the space under the cube is very small.
Looking forward to seeing some nice plumbing disappear into the floor.

You need more pics dood! =)
