120g w/ Fish Room Build

So, to kick us off, here is a picture of the finished tank, stand (bookshelves filled) and aquascape.

Since this time I had to add a giant boulder to the left side of the tank... I bought some livestock from a local reefer that is moving, and had to take the massive rock to get his RBTA. If the darn thing ever moves, the rock will get moved immediately.

Below is last Sunday's project. I built a rack and plumbed up 3 40Bs I had around from the dollar per gallon sale. Hooked up the RO to a float on the top tank, and plumbed so each tank can flow in the next for mixing and water changes. I also added a drain on the sides of two tanks so I can take out fresh or salt water on demand.

Obviously I need to clean up the tubing, paint, etc., but it looks like this set up is going to work well for me.

Also, after lots of deliberation back and forth, we're going full Zeovit! I picked up the Vibe DIY kit from Avast Marine and built it last night. While I can't speak too much to quality so far, shipping was amazing (got shipping notification in an hour!), the build was easy, and their video made it a breeze.

Current stock is:
Magnificent Foxface
2 Ocellaris Clowns
Hippo Tang
Barlertt's Anthias
Starry Blenny

I have added a few frags to the tank to get started, but really nothing too exciting in terms of coral yet.
