It was requested to see a thread for our reef build. I guess better late then never. lol We have a LPS dominant 125 gal reef tank in a peninsula set up.
Here is a few pics from the stand build to get it started. Wired in 4 outlets total in the stand. Each controlled by a light switch. Basically my skimmer is on one outlet. Return pump on one. Lighting on one. Heater and circulation on one..
The shelf to the far end of the tank is for my skimmer to set on as my skimmer is outside of the sump.
The sump is a 55 gallon tank that I converted into a sump. Pretty basic design.. has bio balls, carbon, live rock, and filtration padding.. my skimmer is fed from the sump near the intake.. the return from the skimmer lets out into my chamber of live rock.
