Unfortunately i decided to remove frag area..

The reasons i changed my plan were;

1. Hard to feed corals due to constant flow..

2. I dont like tight sump area.. i rather provide more spaces to my reactor chambers.

3. Im planning to have a dedicate tank for that.

4. Water change isnt efficient for frag tank.

However i recommend it to thoes who willing to fragging and need a place to cure before sell.

Wow, those are the exact dimensions I'm wanting for my next display tank. Where is your equipment hiding furniture in relation to your tank?

Nice equipment choices and that plumbing is really clean!

fishdip22 · 04/20/2017, 09:18 PM

Wow awesome work so far. Is not all the bulbs on it looks like just blue for the lighting.

Actually they all works fine.

I have this overflow on my tank. It works flawlessly. They give you a great template that gave a first time glass driller the confidence to do it himself. Would highly recommend it

Myungjong_Kim · 04/21/2017, 03:34 PM

It's been a while since last update.

So far my tank is getting better and better interms of stability and water quality.

I started adding corals.

I started placing them at the bottom of the aquarium.

But for the fishes im having problem..

All of them are struggling with ich..

Hope they get over it..

Here some photos of my corals..

I dont know how to make them look better..

I think it shows too much blue color..

And here is the look of my sump area

I will post little more later!!

Are you quarantining your fish before placing them in the tank?

Mebeknob · 04/22/2017, 09:10 PM

I really live the back wall of your stand and how clean the plumbing is with it. The custom fit lids look really nice as well.

Nice and clean sump area. Looks great.

cincyjim · 04/27/2017, 07:51 AM

Tank is looking good. Love the aquascape.

dimasv · 05/03/2017, 09:04 AM

Sump area looks really nice. I see you have a wattage consumption meter in there ,can u specify what brand is that, looks like a good one

Caravanshaka · 05/09/2017, 04:07 PM

What is the wall thickness on the aluminum you used for the stand? Spanning 60" with no center brace requires some strength, so I am curious if it was .25".

Cant remember exactly but its gotta be somewhere around 0.25".

I checked with welding guy if its strong enough and he said it will be more than enough.

Its 2X4" aluminum
