Tiff's 99 problem tank build

[darkreef]

99 gallon tank.

Concepts custom built tank.

48X24x20 display with a partial coast to coast overflow 2 return holes 2 drains.

44x24x16 sump , 2x 4" filter socks , skimmer and reactor department , refu .ato

48x27x30 custom built aluminum stand by me

Idea for this tank is mostly LPS large sand bed garden and zoa filled rocks with few different kinds of bird nest at the top

Still have lots to do , but the sides and doors on the stand and plumb the tank . Maybe make a canopy

Problem #1 find a truck to pick up my tanks
Solution - pay a friend with a van a box of beer !



Problem #2 sump is same with as display , no go for wood
Solution - build your own stand in the shop



Problem #3 stand be to big for my car to bring it home and to big and heavy
Solution - build a stand I can bolt together at home and fits in my trunk with aluminum



Problem #4 sell fresh water take and make room in my small apartment
Solution - kijiji

Very nice. What light are you planning on running. I love the large sump gives you plent of room to put reactors and should be easy to clean the sediments.
