Hello everyone, i thought i would get a thread about my tank going. To be honest im posting this to get a bit of feed back on some changes i might(should) do.I look forward to hearing from you all.So..... here we go.
Making the Stand
I made the top and bottom of the stand out of 2x4's and 3/4 plywood, for the bottom i kept it recessed to obtain maximum height for my skimmer that will be in my sump.
A couple shots of how i made the corner braces.
Full side shot
So stand frame work completed.. Time to build a sump it is 75 Gals
here is the skimmer i choose Vertex in250
OK so now i need a tank for this to all go with. I choose a 225 Gal Starphire RR duel center overflow and and return pumps / overflow kits / live sand / hoses and salt, here is a pic.
and Tank on Stand and Sump in place.
You will notice that i have soft flexhose for the intake lines coming from the overflows i since have changed them to PVC pipe and have installed gate valves to control water flow and " Gurgling "
More pics to come...
cheers JC
