My first big tank build 200g ext

[bryanle87]

So I’ve been a member for a few years now. Had a few tanks nothing crazy. Mostly aio tanks. Now that we finally got our own place I decided to pull the trigger on a new system.

Items so far:
Innovative marine 200g ext
Orphek icon x2
Advance acrylics pvc sump
Aquamaxx co-6

Some goodies came in

Found this cheap cabinet on offerup. It was kinda short so I installed legs to make it taller. This will be my control box and have my dosers set on it.

Just picked up all my plumbing today. Just missing two gate valves and my blue pvc. Now just the waiting game I guess for the remaining items to come in.

Nice brand spanking new tank and equipment! Looking forward to seeing it get wet. Location is perfect too.

Thanks guys. Yea no that was a bonus for me. Always wanted to keep a trio of wrasses. The lids are nice

Beautiful tank and set-up! Wifey gets a new home and you get a new tank! That's a fair trade-off. Lol

Tank is gonna be dope. Cant wait to see the progress.

 

[bryanle87]

Thanks guys. Next time I post will be the hard plumbing part. I’m still trying to figure out how to hard plumb my Jbj chiller. Or just go soft plumbing. Not sure yet
