The Transformation

[Alexxn]

After 4 months with a successful 30 gal reef the time has come.......

Thanks to bueller, 100% solid oak, 39" - nice and high :usa1: now just need to stain...

Some random goodies....

Now the heart of it all...58 gals of Oceanic, drilled by Jim (House of Laughter)....

Look what's cookin' in the garage for a few months now...Thanks David (phochl61) I need more as well....

Stay tuned for more, as well as a Beer / BBQ Mid July for the transformation...........:party::beer:

One suggestion, upsize the drain fittings to 1.25'' . This will give a little less drag allowing more flow with a little less noise. I see there's a 1'' bulkhead there, that's ok you can get bushings to adapt the larger pipe size.

not necessary. there's a durso on the back.

I only offer my experience, sorry. I guess setting up over 50 tanks doesn't account for anything.
There's a reason I stopped going on RC as much and found this site.

it doesnt matter how many tanks you setup (dont take it in the wrong way)... your advice is appreciated and respected... there are many ways of doing things... :backtotop
