66g RIMLESS Build.
Okay well ive been holding off getting this setup cuz i know im moving sometime this year again, but rather get this going. Gonna keep a simple design to keep it easy to move plus i like the minimalist look better. The scape will be added on to but to make up for biological filtration ill be adding some things to the sump.
Tank 66g Starfire Rimless 32x24x20 Skimmer Octopus bh50 Powerheads 2 Vortech MP10s Light Maxpect 27" 16k with 120 degree lenses Return whatever works Custom Algae Turf Scrubber Sand tropic eden reef flakes Rock (who knows) stock photo

I already got the tank, this was off ebay. If your looking for these you can check it out there called scaquariums, if your looking for a custom tank and stand and sump..... you can contact steffen in las cruces he builds custom everything really nice.

let me know how the Maxspect works.... I've been researching about them, I'm not sure whether to get those or radion whenever I upgrade my tank lights.... those are my 2 options for the moment...

ive had the maxpect for a year now, just changed the lenses though so i wont know how its going to help just yet. If i had a choice i would try Radion pro first, kessil next and actually the orphek atlantik v2 would be the best out there right now. that said i have no problems with my maxpect and fits perfect on my tank so it stays.
