For the last 15 years or so ive been the proud owner of a 4' 120. Ive had several other tanks but this footprint seems to be the one that i enjoy the most. Tore it down and got out of the hobby about 5 years ago when we were doing some remodeling, and just now getting back to putting it back up. A lot has changed in the last few years since I've been away from the hobby and outside of the tank itself I dont think I am going to use any of the existing hardware. New plumbing, pumps, lights, basically everything. Ive got a couple ideas to clean up the installation - hiding cabling in a closet behind the tank, running ato plumbing/water change plumbing through the same closet and into our laundry room. Heres what it looked like before teardown in 2016.
On the trailer coming out of storage:
Cleanish and ready for plumbing
Further information to come as events warrant. I'm getting stoked about it...but realize I dont have the network of fish buddies that I used to which is kind of a bummer and also I havent started a tank from scratch in probably 20 years. I always rolled one setup into the next, or used stuff from an existing tank to kickstart a new one. Any tips or tricks are appreciated.
