Default 25 gallon custom build

I recently upgraded my system form a 14 gallon biocube to a custom 25 gallon starfire tank 24" by 17" by 16".

This new tank is a vast improvement and allowed me to do everything they way I wanted but got wrong on the first tank.

If found the chambers of my AIO were way to small for my hands and I need a sump for more equipment and ease of use. The tank was build with a back panel of laminated black glass and the three sides are starfire. The overflow is a full length a coast to coast with bean animal drains.

I had a metal stand made and created all the wooden panels for the cabinet myself.

for equipment I am running:

Flow:
-mag 5 dual 1/2 returns
-mp10esw with battery back up

Light:
-Radion led light for DT
-AI Nano for fuge

Filtration:
-25 gallon sump with fuge
-tunze 9002 nano skimmer

Equipment:
-apex controller with wxm module for mp10
-150 w jager heater
-cooling fans for sump (for the few hot days we get)
-JBJ ATO
-Two Brs dosing pumps for alk and ca

I just recently moved all my livestock over and couldn't be happier that it is done now. Can't wait to get some more coral and let this thin grow out.
