Good one Edi. Looking forward to checking out you man cave when the tank is cranking. Not doing Zeo for this one?

Nice Edi :thumbsup:

I am jealous you are getting solar tubes I want them so bad if my tank was on the other side of the house they would be in

Will be a master piece no doubt

I might go hybrid on this tank. Trying something new. Zeo dosing with bio-pellets.
