My first big tank build 200g ext

No I haven’t hahaha been lazy
Didnt know whether I wanted a fuge or frag tank. Found some scrape Light Diffuser and had an a360x laying around and figured I’ll start with a mini frag tank. We’ll see how it goes. There’s also a Nero 3 for extra flow
Didn’t like using the a360x as fuge/frag light. Picked up a used hydra 26hd from @Ohiostreetz. Thansk bro!!! Modded it to use the kessil mount since it can be mounted eurobraced. That way I didn’t have to cut anything or mount anything to my stand or fuge. This way I can grow macro or support some corals ect.
btw that’s just experimental dragons breath to see what spectrum grows it hahahah. I have more lol

Looks good manNice dude. I am actually building a 24" x 72" frag system right now to house all of my livestock while this system cycles. I don't have any pic's of it but I may post a build thread on R2R soon. The current frag rig is just a standard 20g that is way overcrowded the moment. I don't want to start moving stuff into my overcrowded display just to pull it out in 6 mo.

Fo sho...the display is actually 2 years old and the 20g frag QT is about 6 mo. I am picking up my custom AA tank on Friday. I can't wait to set it up it probably won't be sustaining life till about March/April though.

So that was a decent run, ended up having to redo my vinyl flooring due to manufacturing error and started warping, drained the tank and kept my prized fish, long story short grounding probe guys, those old back up heaters toss mad voltage.
anyways finally got the tiles in, new scape and sand in and will be filling it up today.

definitely stoked, been painfully itching to get back

Other fish ok? You had way more than this, no?

Oh man, sorry to hear about the fish, that can hit you hard sometimes. How do you like the IM 200 overall? I want to upgrade to the 150ext at some point, so it would be nice to hear first hand reviews. Glad you back it though.
oh man i love the extra wide space, 30" depth is amazing, however im pretty short 5'3" and its pretty hard to reach back bottom corner without tongs. but love it!
You’ll have good coverage though
