new tank

[Grifter]

My new build. Had a 30 gal aio which sprung a leak. So i had to go bigger. Here is my new 75 gal build. Thanks to Ellis Aquatics for all their help and supplying me with the custom tank.

Here is the latest pics from this build everything is starting to come along. Moved my frags from the tank that leaked. Also, had to change out my return pump it was too noisy for my wife. Had a Rio HF, but saved up and got a Vectra M1. Now I cannot hear the pump but I hear a little noise from the skimmer and overflow.

So here is the specs of the tank. It is a custom 48x18x20 glass with center over flow (1.5in) and dual returns on the corners with DIY stand with removal from panels. Lights is two AI Primes. sump is a 40 gallon breeder that is sectioned off for sock and skimmer, fuge, return, and ATO reservoir. It he skimmer is a NAC 8, I have a cheap led for the fuge, Vectra M1 return. Have a dual BSR reactor with GFO and carbon. still need a ATO. I have two power heads, one is a sicce nano and the other is a jaebo WP10. my next upgrade will be the ATO, then the powerheads.
