Nicely done Marc. Is this a new system?

What Christy said. :smile:

Sam and christy,

It is a new system, its 525g with a 370g sump.

It is a plywood and epoxied tank, with external full length overflows.
The viewing panes (1 side and a face) are 3/4" starphire.
There are 3 -6000 gph sequence pumps as system feeds and 2 are closed loops each with 4 way ocean motions for current.

Jamie and i have been working on both these systems for almost 2 yrs now...been a long process, Im finally seeing the light now, ill keep it updated.

It is still being stocked and the viewing walls still being finished, ill try and get a few more of it for you tonight.

Marc, you gotta show a pic of how you did the lighting hood.

Thanks all, kinda makes all that work worth while. :mrgreen:

Christy, ill post a couple of the face as soon as i get a little more in it...but its lovley looking rock and water :lol:

Its actually not that bad to work on, the tank was designed to have no bracing that would get in the way...
heres a couple with the canopy slid out of the way.

The Canopy is quite big, so it needed a track system to slide it back out of the way to work on.

Heres a couple of pics showing it sliding through the wall into the nwxt room.

The Canopy is also ducted with inline fans to outside, so there is like a rubber boot that slips in when canopy is in place.

Jason, Flex can be purchased at most irrigation outlets or spa tub places.
