Hozer21 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Ok so after all the running around trying to find a tank and where to buy one and waiting around (nutty) for ever I finally got my tank (yahoo). Now that I got my tank it was time to search on where to put it in our house . So my (wife) & I found a spot to put it but the tank wouldn't fit where we wanted DOH! So then we had any other idea (scratch) on where to put and wouldn't u know it worked out just great (dancing) and the wife & I both (agree) agreed where to put it so that was great as well , but now u know after the months of trying to find a tank that would fit what I was looking for . So anyways enough back story here we go with the tank build . First off I would like to tank Steve (aka-Sman) for helping drill the tank and answering some noob DOH! Questions lol The equipment & tank info The tank is 3 ft x 3 ft x 2 ft acrylic (3/4inch) Stand is 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft Canopy is 3 ft x 3 ft x 18 inches Pump ( for right now at least ) reef flow (snapper 18) 2 x sea swirls (3/4inch) 3ft skimmer sry folks don't know who by Sump is a 30 gallon sump Lighting 1- 400 mh 2-24inch t-5s soon to be 4 Calcium reactor 2 chamber (reef octopus ) Ok there is pretty much all the info on the tank and what now for the pics I know enough typing and more pics lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
