Ok here they are....DRUM ROLL..... B-)
This tank will be a SPS tank with lots of swimming room for the new home owners. Going the dry rock on this one. I have 3 large pieces that will set the stage for explosion of color. :)
Going T5 for lighting with the ATI 8 bulb setup. Very large sump will be the heart of the tank. (2) MP-40's will give all the motion for the corals. Ok done with the talk...Here comes the pictures. :-bd





Love this overflow box....The slot on the bottom is the return. No lines or hoses or wires going in this tank will be seen..



The front of my stand will cased with black marble with white veining. (Italy) pictures to come on this.










More to come very soon....
Let me know what you think. I will be interfacing this into my current Apex setup. Details for that coming soon. I will be tying into my calcium reactor also.

Awesome tank man.

Is that BRS Pukani? Any issues with phosphate? (Did you acid wash or cook it?)

Love your tank! How do you keep the water from draining all the way down to the return slot when the pump is off? Check valves? What is your maintenance routine on this tank?

Thanks a lot guys for all the complements!
KoleTang- The was from a local guy here in town. No issues with phosphates. Hanna checker is 0. I didn't do any acid wash or cook it.
Mike- On the back side of the overflow box has a siphon break. So I have no issues with the return pump off. [emoji1]
Bnutthehut - I only have the one idol in the tank. I bought him here locally and he wasn't eating and slowly fading away. So I got him hoping I could turn him around. Two days later I had him eating Nori. Since then he has been eating sponge that I got for him and is now eating mysis shrimp. [emoji1][emoji1][emoji106][emoji106] hoping he continues to do well.

Well there are times during our "Reefing" we have had highs and lows and I know I have been thru both. This one is a high for me... So I wanted to share with all you guys this.
My 120 Reef Savvy makes their home page. Many pics!
