Got my frag tank ATO setup.

[SchnitzelReef]

FINALLY

It's the small 1/4" line coming in from the top left

So happy. But still a pain to fill the reservoir. I think in a couple weeks I'm going to run a line from my RO/DI to this tank. I have it setup like that on my 180, and it's super convenient. Prolly gunna run a 1/4" line through my attic and drop it down into the closet.

Anyways. Mission accomplished.

Nick my stand is 42 inches tall and I love it. Lots of head room in the sump which means more air. You'll have to get a step ladder to get to the bottom but the trade off of not having to bend down to see your coral is well worth it.

[GoReef165]

I'd def go 42" if I could do it over again

 

[wickedfish]

Those are great dimensions Nicholas, 40" would be just as good. If you did a bar on it you would need 30" stools. I went all stupid and did 48" tall and had to custom order 37" tall stools at 700$ a pop, ya bone head move.

 

[reefes pieces]

so when's the ETA for the big tank Schnitz?

 

[Six2seven]

my tank is 40" tall and my tank is 24" tall but I have a mini bar that sticks out 10 inches. its a perfect size but a step stool is required.

My tank is 24 tall so I have a longer reach. My canopy is 18 inches I think so that's why I can't reach the bottom. But trust me you won't regret 40-42 inches. My sump is 20 inches tall and look at the room I have. I used Chad as a reference LOL

 

[SchnitzelReef]

so when's the ETA for the big tank Schnitz?

I'll be ordering it in the next couple weeks.

I found a local cabinet guy that will be building my stand and canopy. Super cheap.
