120 Gallon New Build

Ha ha ha thank you for the observation. The tank was custom built and weighs 250 lbs alone. It's reinforced with double walls using MDF and top coated with vinyl for protection against salt water.

I wish it was from Walmart because I could of bought 20 units for the price of one

okay! The walls just look very thin and the wood looks poor on the sides and holes where it is connected together.
But all is good then! happy reefing :D
 
Nice. I love the red PVC. I had to paint mine red because no one in Canada distributes red pvc! I would have to order it from New Jersey and the shipping was nuts.
I'm gonna look into the bigger adapter:)
Nice looking build! Following...

BTW, the colored PVC is "furniture grade" PVC for building outdoor projects. It is UV resistant and has a shiny exterior. You likely won't find it at a plumbing store though. I got all of mine online from Home Depot. I don't know what is available in Canada though. Painting is fine, except that it will scratch, even if you use the Krylon Fusion, which is supposed to "bond to plastic on a molecular level." :-)
 
It looks great !
I wish Home Depot had those connections in Ontario ha ha
