Well every one of y'all know how this hobby is you can never have a big enough tank lol. In the past month i been buying all my stuff to set this thing up its coming along real good still need a sump and currently building my stand but other than that i have everything. The tank is a 150 tall 48x24x31 RR with a 1500 GPH glass-hole.com overflow, for return I'm going to run a mag 9.5, for filtration i will be running an algae scrubber, for lighting DIY 72 LED 2 36 LED fixtures. flow will be cover by an MP40ES for now but eventually will run 2, i have about 225 lbs of dry rock no live rock staying away from pest, Aquarium will be control by a DIY controller (arduino) act. By the way this is the first wood stand i ever done :wink:.
