Nate's "Oceanfront Bar" Mixed Reef Build!

[NastayNatron]

And finally I hung my Radion XR-15pro G3 over the tank and transferred my fish and coral! I didn't have much of an ammonia cycle because I've had the live rock curing downstairs for so long. I also mounted my Vortech MP-10 on the back wall of the tank and it fit perfectly. My coral are all looking a lot smaller as I had byprosis in my small tank and did not plan on introducing it immediately in the new tank, therefore they were cut back a lot to prevent any carryover. The switch over went great and everyone is happy in their new home! My pistol shrimp and goby have claimed the underside of the large rock and are very active digging away as always! Check it out!

Check out my sump! I decided to go with the Kessil H-150 Purple for my fuge light. I hung it with air craft cable and it looks pretty slick. It grows macro like crazy! Ill post a few shots of it lite up in the future.













All of the electrical runs behind the small drawer in the center of the stand across to the right hand cabinet. The electrical cabinet is about to get a big facelift once I get my dosers, new ATO reservoir, and a few other things, but its good enough for now.

Make sure there's enough room between your rocks and glass for your algae magnet. One on the right looks like it could be too close.

Thanks! I left enough room for the time being. I'm sure its going to be a battle once coral start to fill in to keep them away from the glass but that's a good thing haha.

Sorry about the massive pic drop! I felt like it was time to finally get a build thread on Canreef again!

Wow man. Thats some serious equipment and attention to detail! Looks amazing!

Where did you get the Cerebra from?

Super clean set up , tank looks flawless with one piece euro . Also wish I would have known you could get the overflow teeth cut like that I definitely got that done . Did you find that red pvc local or have to order it ?

Thanks! I picked up the Cerebra from Bulk Reef Supply while it was on the 50% off sale. I have a PH probe and another power bar being shipped right now so they will be added sometime next week along with the rest of the stuff for the right side cabinet.

Thanks! Concept did a great job. I requested the teeth be cut that way and they made it look awesome. The red pvc is from Bulk Reef Supply. I looked around a bunch trying to find it in Canada but had no luck. It was fairly expensive when you factor in the exchange rate and shipping but it adds a lot of character to the tank!

Thanks a lot!! A fair amount of thought went into fitting everything in with a clean look and ease of maintenance.
