Puffer Chick's 46 Gallon Bowfront Reef

yea, my attempt is to have one of those ever so very few puffers in a full reef setup. And once i pay off my c.c. i think i will possibly consider the rock and stand first, i think it may almost be cheaper, cause i already have to pay $500 on my c.c. right now, and if i am able to pay it off with my next pay check the skimmer and lights would put another 500 back on the card, then it would take another month to pay it off. then after a month of the tank siting in my room, i think i would become really impaitent. So i think i may do that first.

 

so looks like i'll be able to get the water, lr, and sand, hopefully next weekend from my lfs i'm getting reallyyyy excited now

 

Gonna be a nice tank. Good luck in your endeavour.

 

thanks im kind of glad that it will take 2 months to cycle the tank, that way i can save up and pay off my c.c to get the lighting and skimmer that i still need

 

Not to burst your bubble...but our tank cycled in two, maybe three weeks. But that was under very special cirmcumstances.

 

lol i'd be more than happy to have my tank cycle that fast maybe i'll get as lucky as you did since i have a 46 myself but then, if my tank does cycle that fast, i would probably have to wait a while to add my fish cause no skimmer or lighting

 

Nice to see the build coming along
Where are you doing most of your shopping these days?

 

for the powerheads, heater, and filter i used dr, foster and smith. the tank and stand i got at petsmart. I'll be using reefgeek for the lighting and skimmer. And i've been foing to an LFS in huntington beach, and if i order online but go in the store to pay for my stuff i get 50% off my order, so that's where i will be getting the LR, LS, and H20 from.

 

that sounds like a good deal- 50% discount if you pay in person
a trip to the LFS is always a good thing anyway

nice looking set up, looking forward to more images.

Where did you buy the tint? How was the application progress?
Sounds like a great alternative to painting in case I ever change my mind(that never happens)
