Skimmer king's 150 inwall mixed reef "Retiring this Weekend"
Well I have started another thread due to my better half is all done with daycare so I get my RecRoom back, this tank will be 60x24x24 with 1/2"glass euro braced around. the sump will be 30x16x18 the reason for a smaller sump the laundry room and the fish room will have a wall that will share a wall to separate them. I was going to use my old 75 gal sump but its not going to work to where I want it to be. So spend more money. the tank will have something different for a over flow I went with a box in the back left corner just because I hate the over flow boxes that take up alot of tank space. Lighting will be 2x250's on a Galaxy electronic ballast bought from Doug here. THANKS DOUG
Im going to pick up some lumenarc reflectors and run 12K reeflux bulbs. I will have a 8 bulb t-5 tek lighting system for sale when ever i get around ordering my lumenarc reflectors too. the tank will sit around 24" off the ground recessed in 4" to have a nice ledge around it. the trim is from home Depot 6-1/2" I find that a wide trim enhances the tank. SO enough typing here are some pic's keep in mind this build will take soem time since I will be heading back to Afghanistan on June 7th until Sept time frame.
the trim didnt match up on the cut thank god for paintable silicone..
i will take a shot once the trim is all painted and all the touch ups are done...
and here is the tank the last one I mean it too.... and I'm getting a sink for my skimmer which will be on the left side of this room..

Doesn't matter how much you have been reading until you take the plunge.
You don't know as much as you think.
