120G build
i got a 120G dual overflow tank drilled brand new from mike (used to own hidden reef)
 got a 40G breeder tank  euroreef 135 2x150WMH with 2-96 W actinics no pics yet also got a quiet 1 4000HH for sump return and an iron might pump for the CL  now onto the stand my friend was building a 220G planted discus tank at the same time and he came up with the idea to use hardwood flooring for the stand so here are a few stand in progress shots    rocks and sand a a few fish  aand the sump packed full power cords everywhere

yea thanks for the concern tho
my friend used the same stuff in his 220G planted discus and its been a year and they all have survived so i figured it was ok far as i know and research went its the midew protection that is harmful to fish any silicone that has no protection is OK.. i actually read the label on a clear one and it was opened in the store so i grabbed the one behind it paid got home popped it open and sure enough it was WHITE. wasnt impressed but its in the stand so i got over it lol. its $4 a tube instead of $20 at the LFS
