Default Yet Another Tank 75 gal Corner

Well here we go again, recently I upgraded my community tank from a 65 gal Hex to a 155 BF. And now I am moving my pred tank to a 75 gal Corner Fowler. Resident's will include Leo the lion fish, Morry the snow flake eel, Pablo the picasso trigger, Speed the lunar wrassel and Spike the green serpent star.





Came with tank, stand, canopy, 3 bulb T5 fixture, sump, 675 gph sump pump & all the plumbing. Purchased a Aqua Medic T1000 skimmer from follow CanReefer, upgrading to a 4 x 24 T5 HO fixture with 4 led moon light's and built a Hofer Gurgle Buster for the overflow.

Had a little set back the other day setting it up. Tank was almost full when the front panel of the sump cracked in half. So I had a new piece cut and siliconed it together tonight. Tanks is running with a Rena XP2 w/ smart heater. Hope to have the sump back in Wednesday.
