So, maybe this is obvious, though I have a built a few stands in my day and seen a good bit of them over the years. That said they all look rather similar. I was building a stand for my 240g and wanted to try something a little different, and came up with the below. I thought it was a good idea...

Hey everyone, I have been having some fun with my laser engraver and made this set of slate stone coasters. I’m asking $25 for the set shipped. Let me know if you have any questions, if multiple people are interested I can make more but just wanted to feel things out before making a bunch of...

So I purchased the stealth box kit with h2overflow on January 19, what a big mistake that was I have had nothing but a terrible experience from these people, after emailing them the next day to add something onto my order they took over 14 days to get it delivered to me when they quoted me 6-10...

I’m looking for advise on a stand for my 200 gallon (60 x 30) peninsula tank build. I’m looking for a decorative open stand. All plumbing, sump, reactors, etc will be located through the wall in the garage. Only the tank will sitting on the stand, nothing planned for underneath. My wife...

Here’s some pics of the custom tank build. Red Sea Reefer 250 with custom Synergy CL-34 Sump and Clearwater CW-50 Custom Algae Scrubber includes: So I had my build going (no expense spared) and ran into some family financial and health issues and am forced to sell. I have parted out some...

Below is the story of how this build evolved into my dream tank and became the ultimate BioCube build. I’ve always been attracted to nano’s. Historically, I have moved every 2-5 years so the thought of moving a large setup discouraged me from ever going big. I purchased the BioCube 29 gallon...

Greetings all, So this is my first foray into the hobby of saltwater aquariums so over the last few months I have spent considerable time research, convincing, and getting the equipment I really wanted. So this is the progress of my build to date, I am hoping to have water in it by this week...

I am a big time aquascaper and have spent about 2 weeks sculpting the rockwork for my new cube. It is composed of reefsaver that I chiseled and dremeled into shelves, then cemented together to give it a stepped branching/tabling look. This piece is a monster - about 17hx22l and 60lbs...

So my issue is i am running MH’s i want to add some more blue and pop, the second part of my issue is i want to run 3 light bars or 1 larger light bar on each side (48” in length). The only issue i have is it seems every manufacturer requires a inverter per light bar, is their a way to...

Trying to find aluminium extrusion for a custom light fixture. Using 20mm star led boards have 13 3W leds spaced over 800mm±100mm. Anybody got any ideas or sources? Ideally in the UK to keep costs down. Cheers

Hey Guys, So maybe you can tell from the title but I am building a complete system from scratch (Tank, Stand, Sump, and plumbing). I will post my progress on this thread so stay tuned. Here are some pics from the stand.

Hello, This is a brand new item designed and fabricated to be 100% custom. The Stock Break Out Box can be an eye sore, especially if you take pride in your cable management. This break out box is completely customized by you. No one else on the internet has this option for a Neptune Apex Bob...

Hi all, I have an Innovative Marine SR-60 and really love it. It’s my display tank. I have the stock lid and it worked for a while. The issue is the stock lid leaves a decent gab around the rim. I lost two gobies because they jumped out! Squeezed right through the gap. A yasha and a Dracula...

Introduction It has long been a dream of mine to build a larger tank (like no doubt many of us) since I started keeping marine fish a century ago (approximately). After putting it off for far too long, I have finally decided to go all in on a new dream build! As with many things I set my mind...

So I've bit the bullet and am going to be buying a custom made ultraclear rimless 4x2x1.5. Tank builders have lots of access to equipment so I can have notches cut out, holes etc. Currently the plan is to have a large external overflow on the back of the tank, with a large notch cut out of the...

Bugs in chaeto after 8 days of being set up.

Think I’m about ready to pull the trigger on putting my deposit down for my big tank upgrade and I’ve gone back and forth with a couple of configurations whether it be height, width, overflow style, stand considerations, etc. I think I’ve landed on a 48x24x18 (90G) from Reef Savvy. What do you...

Hello Everyone I've been reefkeeping for over 20 years now, I've had my fair-share of mishaps (some my fault, some not) but the enjoyment has far outweighed the depression. My family and I moved from California to Texas about a year ago and I setup a 225g sps-reef almost immediately when we...

Soooo. Been using some scrap supplies and a random turtle tank I had laying around to do a new project. I build custom bioactive vivariums for tropical reptiles on the side, so I grow most of the plants I use in my green house. I’ve been vending through a buddy’s booth at the reptile shows, so...

I am looking for a new reef tank but haven't been able to find one online that suits my needs and stays in my budget. I want a peninsula/end flow tank that is glass and rimless. It would be great if it already had AIO filtration like the IM Nuvo tanks do. Here are the requirements...

Hey Reefers, I've been putting together my Reefer 450 that I bought second hand from someone on Craigslist. It came with a ton of upgrades, custom work, and custom LED's. I just recently got it up and running and built a nice custom floating canopy out of PVC boards and now have the lights that...

I have had my current 6-foot shallow reef tank setup for about 2.5 years now... and its time for a bit of a do-over... Now i didn't really plan on upgrading or changing my tank as I love it! However, due to a hazy line in the glass, the tank builder was going to replace the tank. I'm sure you...

Hey Guys, Doing custom build using Aquamaxx Premium Cuboid Low-Iron. Made custom stand out of pine wood, and bought the LR45 sump from windrider creations Here are the specs. Features Low-iron glass Hand crafted quality Individually leak-tested and inspected Polished edges Specifications...

Just upgraded from nano tanks to now a big tank. Go big or go home, so I went BIG and I brought it home. Feel free to follow me on this journey as I customize and modify this tank. Feel free to provide feedbacks, I would love to see what you all think.

Has anyone owned a Rapid LED kit ( http://www.rapidled.com/solderless-75g-tank-dimmable-kit/ ) as shown in this picture below, I am curious to know if anyone has PAR measurements for this DIY kit and their experience in owning it.
