here is an update of what i think i'm going to do with tank, its drilled for a 1.5" over flow but going to drill 2-4 more holes in the bottom for returns or a closeloop that way i can keep it clean looking with out power heads, return will be a mag 2.5 that i have laying around, for a sump and refgium i will have 2 ten gallon tank with baffles in the stand, skimmr not to sure yet have a hang on prizm skimmer i could use, heater will be a titanium 150 watt, for cooling some computor fans in hood and over sump on a controller, lights i haven't dicided if i wont to go 75watt halide or 4 t5 ho's, would need new bulbs for both types.
stand should be done this weekend and should be able to get some water, rock and sand in it going to use 75% from stable system and 25% new salt water, should have little to no cycle, rock is fully cured waiting in my refgium of large system. don't think i'm missing any thing big at the moment, more updates to come. |

finally got around to building the stand today, used birch plywood for sides and back and solid birch for the front no doors yet, had to remove two side peices to get the ten gallon in to it. cut the ten gallon front out of it tonight so i can get a peice of 1/4" glass cut to drill a hole so water can get to the bottom sump.
