65G FOWLR Journal

Bad luck Sprinkle, it seems that after all I had to continue with my 65G tank, although it was a lot of work, photos to come ...

That's a pain. So did I understand right, you're going to repair the 27 and use it as a sump for the 65, then continue with the 65 running only?

You are right. I guess now I would like to rename this thread, do any of you know if that can be done?

Some photos that I took today, I have the tank working below the area of the descent to the sump, I have all the rock here and I used all the water that I had stored and the water from the 27G tank and it was not enough, however that There is time to wait for the sump to be ready, I will only put new water in the sump and the system will work again, I have ceramic rings and bioballs still in the 10G sump working with moving water, everything will be ready in a few days.

Looking very nice!

Thanks Sprinkle, I'm waiting for the name change in the thread, I hope it can be done, the sump will be ready shortly. I have not heard from my trusted marine fish dealer so I will probably get fish from another vendor, I will have free the 10 gallon tank that I could use as a QT.

Looks good. I've only kept acouple of FOWLR tanks, but I like the phase when all the live rock starts coming alive, and you start seeing all the different critters and the coralline algae filling in the gaps.

WYite, too bad I had to uninstall the 27G tank, there was a lot of life in the rocks already, maybe 75%. Now with all the "new" rock it will surely take several weeks for life to begin to colonize, although I hope it takes less time.
