      Hector's 50 Lagoon APS Stand

      Hello friends,

      I want to share my IM 50 Lagoon build, I got it with a APS Wood finish stand. I did order the black stand but it was not in stock. The wait was almost one month. So I pulled the trigger with the wood finish stand. No regrets the wood finish is beaitiful! Very surprise on build quality. Everything seems to be in the box in order. I ended up getting the bundle came with a few goodies.

      Sharing some pictures of the progress. Not a new build since I'm only doing a transfer from my other tank. Thought I share since i really don't see that much builds on the 50 Lagoon.

      Tank was very well package so far I see zero damage on the tank and stand. Tank was purchased from MarineDepot. Great customer service.

      Pakage bundle:

      IM 50 Lagoon AIO
      APS Wood finish stand
      MightyJet return pump(Controllable)
      IM MicroMag
      IM MediacaddyBasket
      IM Screen top

      Light for this tank:

      2 AI Prime HD (FirstGen)
      One in order should be here this week.

      In the near future adding a doser and a few other smaller things.

      Super nice. If I can say one thing, leak test for at least 24hours just from my multiple bad experiences w/ IM tanks.

      How much bigger does this tank seem compared to your current set up?

      Wider so better aquascaping. It seems a lot bigger than what it really is.. But I love the way it looks very unique look!🤘

      Small update on the 50 Lagoon AIO doing well so far. The tank is still kind of young not matured. I had I small cycle when I transferred everything over. But it seems now like is doing well.

      I started dosing B-Ionic 2 part I was dosing Fusion part A and B Hopefully everything does well with this product. I hear nothing but good things about it.

      Plans adding soon:

      -Hang on fuge
      -Dosing pump
      -Skimmer
      -Orphek Led strip one(possibly 2)
      -T5 (Not sure yet)


      Also adding more corals..SPS Acans and shrooms. Starting to like Cynarina meat corals.

      Fish:

      -Aquarich Onyx clown fish pair(I already have them.
      -Yellow tang(Need to get rid of him)
      -Blue eye cardinals
      -Stripe Cardinals

      That's all I could think about at the moment. Updates coming on my progress on this tank.
