Hey Reefers!
I just picked up this tank to move the ponies out of the 8 ( YES! .. 8) gallon Nano. Just set it up and gonna run it with fw till I decide if it needs a good buff. It's 38 g rimless 3/4" acrylic , 2 ch 20 g sump ,built in external overflow w durso ( nice and quiet). Has an eshopps s120 cone skimmer , and will be running my Reefbreeder A4 Nova led on it.
Here it is. With my cat Duma inspecting the seams of course, before I fill her up! ;)

Thank you :) I'll keep it updated as I get going. Will probably be buffing the outside today or tomorrow.. then it's ON! Considering Black sand for this one.. anybody wanna chime in on their exp using it? I want to find solid jet black if I do tho.. most look kinda mixed with some brown or even grey :/

thanks Jesse.. no It's an Asian Leopard Cat.. or really an F2 Bengal.. he's hysterical, very wild and loves to swim! opens cabinets, turns on faucets.. way too smart for his own good! lol
Cool tank...not a cat person but are those savannahs? Pretty cool pattern on them.

Had it polished by Chris and George ( acrylic pros) they did it overnight for me ( since I'm the most impatient reefer EVER lol)! Great guys and a super deal :) Then picked up all the tonga from Jayson ( Ellis Aquatics) he has an awesome setup .. so many outstanding deals! I hate that I am so far from him :Cry:
So, after 10 freeways, 37 roadrage F-bombs, and 7 hrs roundtrip.. It's ready to rock and roll.. Thanks guys for all the help!! :beer:
