No idea mate... I'm not even sure when I'll get to resealing it and repairing the frame. No plans for it yet since I'm still making sure the 10 gallon is on point now that it has a fish and CUC and also the project of moving all this tank equipment and inhabitants to the 29g(minus the gravel and a few fish). Only after I get that all situated and start getting coral in the nano will I start to think about the next tank restoration project on this 37g. A reef would look great with that height but imagine how powerful the lights will need to be to get decent par all the way to the sand bed 24inches down(61cm for you freaks).

Yeah, even though I had no plans for a new tank yet I'm really enjoying it. Not sure how I couldn't though since I've only spent $25 total on it so far...

I'm going to buy some Seachem Flourish and another APC surge protector for it since I'm setting the 29 gallon up in a different location. This will bring my total up to $50 total for a great setup and stock. I'll just be investing in plants for it in the future, but will be buying them from local(or on fishlore) hobbyists to cut costs.

The light I have would do that tank, I can't say id recommend it as its cheap and far from user friendly, you could easily nuke your corals with it but it gets the job done, I wouldn't be upgrading your sw for a good while any way it looks like a lot of fun your having with the 10 and the orbit looks like a top piece of kit with all its settings id have gotten that for my 16 but they ain't in the uk and I'm clueless when it comes to buying from abroad. Id have my 16g back tomorrow though.

One last update before the tank goes into repair and I move the contents to a 29 gallon with sand. I weeded out some of the rocks I found. I wish they had better contrast with the sand I got but I'm not hating it. They'll create some nice caves and dividers though!

Then the planting begins!
