Dunc's 'I've moved house again so it would be rude not to buy another tank' 93 cube

[kobelka]

Wow this has the makings of a sick reef. Can I ask how much a tank like that runs $? I built a 2' cube which in only a month has become too small!

The tank cost $601.97 I believe. Its 30x30x24. Its a lot bigger than I thought it would be (even though I knew the measurements).

Haha. Mine is a lot smaller than my wife thought it would be even though she saw in sitting in the carport for a month before I could set it up. It replaces a RSM 130 and sits in the same spot but because it has 4 sides viewing, it doesn't seem as intrusive as the much smaller RSM with its black background.

Hey Dunc, keep the tank build pictures coming. So far it's looking good.

Looks like a great location for a cube. Were you able to confirm the joist direction under the floor?

[duncangweller]

Yeah I got a stud finder and found out they run perpendicular to the partition wall.

Great looking set up . I can't wait to see it completed. I picked up a 93 gallon cube a few months ago but I have not had the time to set it. Keep up the good work..

I bought the 48" ext mount system so it looks pretty sleek over my tank. Here's a pix of when I first turned it on. This is with AI pre-programmed settings at 20%

Looks great. I have the same tank but with rim. I run an AI sol with 2x 24w t5. I built a canopy and enclosed the T5's, rested the ai on top. Best configuration so far. Can't wait to see how you scape it!!
