After 2 years I'm back

[James983]

Well its been close to 2 years since my 150 reef tank leaked and I lost everything. A little break, a lot of thought, and a lot more money and I have re-built with a Acrylic 180. I have attached some pictures. There is more to come. I will be adding MP40s and hanging the light fixture soon.

Equipment:
180 Acrylic ClarityPlus Tank with sump/stand.
75 gal. sump/fuge
72" Aquactinic Constellation T5 fixture
MRC Dual Calcium Reactor
Vertex 180 Protein Skimmer
BRS GFO reactor
Reeflo Blackfin main pump
Reefkeeper 2 controller


Tank just started cycling............

Any thoughts or comments are welcome



This is the tank before adding the plumbing.




With plumbing in sump.




This is the second sump/fuge which I added to ease maintenance.



Gonna fine tune the aquacaping a bit, but wanted to get running.

Good to have you back pal. I had one of those tanks in 1988. Does this have the filter trays in the stand?

 

[James983]

Yes it does John. I bought the tank from another MR member. The sump is nice for more water capacity, but not functional which is why I added the 2nd sump.
