Slykat's Inland Reef

[Slykat]

This is a new 180G aquarium set up. Previously I have had a 30g and a 90G over the last 15 years. Truly enjoy following along and gathering info from Canreef's great community.

Custom aquarium picked up in Sept. 2015. 2 returns, external overflow - set up for bean animal.

Dec/Jan worked on aquarium set up and Fish room.
Set up is in the basement rec room. I re-enforced the floor where legs sit and also changed chip board for plywood sheet. Under the stairs is the fish room with pass thru to tank for plumbing.

This looks like a really well thought out plan! Which equipment will you be running?

[Slykat]

Thanks, I've been reading and collecting info for the past year on this build.
What I have so far is:

Lighting - T5's Ati
Heaters - 2 Finnex 300w
Return pumps - Waveline Dc pumps
Controller - Apex - Lab grade
More to go.

Will be working on setting up sump and water storage.

Most people upload their images to a 3rd party site like Photobucket and link from there. Canreef isnt meant to be a storage facility for photos.

Ok tks.

Making water with the Vertex Ro/Di 100 GPD. Water is plumbed to my storage tank. Waste water is plumbed to drain line of a near by sink.

Coming along nicely, keep them pictures coming.

Most recent piece of the puzzle to arrive. This one has been on back order for a while.
