My wife and I recently built a new home in Florida and I included a 410 gal reef tank with it's own support room. The tank is a Coast to Coast glass tank 96x36x28 and will be viewable from 2 sides (Starfire Glass). The sump is about 125 gal and was built by Fishtanksdirect. This was a long process but I am at a point where I can start showing the work that has been done.
Here is a list of some of the equipment I used:
Skimmer - Super Reef Octopus XP5000 Cone
Chiller - Coralife Aquarium Chiller 1HP
Calcium Reactor - Super Reef Octopus 5000 Dual Calcium Reactor
Kalk Reactor - Octopus SRO Kalk Stirrer
Lights - LED - EcoTech Marine Radion XR30w (8)
Flow - EcoTech Vortech MP-60 wireless (1)
EcoTech Vortech MP-40 (4)
Main Return Pumps- Blue Line 70HD External pumps (2)
UV Sterilizer - Aqua UV 80watt w/wiper
Media Reactor- Jumbo BRS GFO and Carbon Reactor (2)
This is the framed out tank room.
Here is the tank stand build.
Support legs and corners on and level. That's my buddy Nate cutting the plywood base out in the background.
