Well hey yall! I have been out of the fish scene for about 3 years. Long enough to forget what a pain it was but long enough to miss it. I started with fresh water so many years ago I dont remember how long ago it was, then I graduated into the salt water reef system, full coral and metal halide lighting, you know all the bells and whistles. I got out when I got divorced and moved. So now Im back and I wanted to get into the beautiful planted tanks I always admired even while I had a wonderful reef system at home.
So right now I am in the process of cycling my new 110 gallon Tall, Cant wait till I can add fish!!
110 gallon tall 48 7/8 x 19 x 30 3/4
2 40 watt sunshine fluorescent bulbs 5000 K
1 40 watt Plant and Aquarium fluorescent bulb 5900 K
2 Hang On cartridge filtration systems pumping 330 gph each
100 lbs playsand
As far as the lighting goes,The tak is so deepI need to make sure I get the right lights to get to the depth off the bottom. I would like to go towards T5 lighting but for now I am going to add 1 more Sunshine and 1 more Plant and Aquarium bulb to what I have now. But as you all know it is always a work in progress when it comes to our little boxes of water. So right now like I said it is cycling so I have time to get some more lights and decide on the T5s.
