Cool man! got any pics? Also not sure ur jebao 6000 is enough, i also using 6000 for my 2ft

will upload pics when tank arrived :yahoo:

Have already bleached all my liverocks ~70-80kg.

Have also completed the drying process & soaked them in rodi with prime.

Bought another 20kgs of tonga rocks not long ago & have soaked them together with some of my previous rocks in straight vinegar to remove phosphates, coppers and other impurities.

Now, 40% of my rocks is soaking in rodi with daily 100% wc.

While 60% of my rocks is ready to be used.

It is a long and tedious process, but to me, its definitely worth it. No more aiptasia , bad crabs , bristle worms , etcetc.

A clean and fresh start. :cheers:

30litres of White Vinegar soak :

Tank , sump , ato tank will come on weekdays. Either mon or tues. Cant wait!! Have not been reefing for a month !

Back view of the stand.

First , have to tear down the window grills to bring it in as my house door width is only 70cm.

Now what i have to do is scaping and filling it up with rodi water.
