Here is my quarantine tank set up. I will be testing parameters. As you can see in the photo, I need a power strip controller. The biocube will have water this weekend. View attachment 13467

Ya that power strip sitting like that is a huge hazard. Needs to be mounted with drip loops on all the cords. Would be really easy to get water on it and the a whole bunch of bad things could happen including fire. I’d fix it before you put water in the other tank

I'll also add that it's a good idea to have your power strip plugged in to a GFCI protected outlet for safety. Easy to do if you are comfortable working with electrical. I've also seen GFCI plug in adapters, but not sure how reliable their performance is.

I was going to use a GFCI plug in until I change out the plug. However, I'm not sure how much protection I will have unless I have dedicated cicuit.

Well, I have been cycling the tank using Dr. Tim's fish less method. My parameters are 0 ppm ammonia, 25+ ppm nitrite and 50 ppm nitrate. I found a opportunity for some corals. Here is my tank at this exciting adventure. I'm anticipating algae bloom, cyanobacteria etc. Looking good so far. View attachment 13544 View attachment 13545 View attachment 13546
