Looks like you've got a good start. Nice work.

Hooked up the plumbing and did the mandatory leak test. Just a couple of minor issues that a little teflon tape will fix. The biggest problem that i have is that the overflow boxes dont seal 100% from the tank.Where the overflows thread into the bulkheads they are leaking past the threads I think because there is a constant dripping into the sump from the drain line. I need to get that fixed or when the power goes out I will eventually flood the sump.

Nice, another build thread.
Very nice work, very clean. The refinishing of the stand looks marvelous. I want more pics, keep us posted. |
Well I started the aquascaping. Man is that frustrating, like a giant jigsaw puzzle. Well I have it basically finalized, lots of depth and nice coral mounting shelves, caves etc. I will still need to add a few pieces of LR to seed it once I get the water in but I wanted to basically get it all placed while its still dry. Actually the picture doesnt really do it justice, it is much more 3 dimentional than the picture shows.

I like it! Especially that triangular piece on top with the hole in the middle of it.

I picked up 6 pounds of LR today to seed my tank with (just a few small shelf pieces). The tank is currently filling with water, man the RODI sure takes a long time to put out 120+ gallons. Sometime tomorrow it should be full. Add the rock and sit and wait. |
All filled up and running now for 10 days. Sure wish it would hurry up, I miss my fish and corals.

Wow that looks awesome!!! I missed out on what you were running for lights?

The Canopy has a single 250 Mogul and 2 VHO actinics. I wont be leaving the canopy on once i get livestock/coral in the tank. Too many heat issues and I have a very nice 2 x 250w aqualite pro with brand new phoenix 14k bulbs that came off of my old tank.
