![]() Just thought I'd share a few pics of my new 72 G up and running this week! Finally got all the rock and livestock switched over from my overcrowded 27 Gallon.
Equipped with corner overflow, durso standpipe, and sump! My first time with a sump and all the plumbing and so far so good! ![]() ![]() Water still a little cloudy as the Goby friend is a little OCD and has a"sifting addiction"!! ![]() Don't mind the powerhead with floss stuck in there to help remove the "cloud". Mad a DIY cover lastnight too to keep my fishy friends in, abit of a challenge with the Bow! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() Looks great Carmen, are you running T5's on that or MH? how on earth did you make that screen cover? looks pretty well made, I might have to look into something like that for my 46 gallon Bowfront.

![]() Just a 4 light T5 Tek for now.
The cover was actually fairly easy to make using plastic bird netting from Home Depot and the materials used from screen doors for the edgeing. It's somewhat bendable - not perfect- but I figured I couldn't be too picky with the BOW shape. It would likely not work for MH because I expect the plastic would melt - good enough for me though.

![]() That looks great - is there any putty holding those rocks together?
I think you have a knack for rock-stacking. ![]() Not too full, good swimming room, great pass-throughs.
