This tank's been about a year in the works. Had my 20gal for a little less than 2 years and it's been trouble free. This summer my wife and I had a new addition to the family, our first daughter and the rest of the summer and fall consisted of digging a 2000gal pond/waterfall in my backyard. Being December I thought it was time to get this project started again. The tank was built last January by a company who shall remain nameless. The workmanship was good but that was the only good thing about the experience (BTW it wasn't a Canreef sponsor who built it). Rimless 100 gallon constructed out of half inch glass 48" X 22" X 22", Eurobraced with an internal overflow. Two 2.5" drains and two 1.75" returns.





Built the stand, painted and laid down half inch styrofoam.





The sump is my old 55gal I used to use for FW, baffles were installed by Red Coral. I was originally planning to put the sump under the tank inside the stand but there was hardly any room for maintenance. I'm going to construct a sump/control room in the space under my stairs and plumb the tank through the wall.







Other parts consist of an Aqua-Medic skimmer and an Oceanrunner 3500 return pump. More pics to follow as I continue with build...
