33 gallon mr. aqua

[red13]

Just wanted to share my new tank. Its a work I progress; this is where I am so far. The tank dimensions are 24x18x18, I drilled it with a 1.5 in drain and 3/4 in return. The equipment so far includes a mp10w, eshopps sc120, aquticlife 4 bulb t5, Rio 10hf, and phosban 150 reactor. I am waiting for the stand, so I have been playing with the scape.

I would love any feedback on the rock placement, or anything else you might have.
Also I am planning a 6 bulb ati fixture in the near future. Thanks for looking.

Thank you,
I really like the mr. Aqua tanks, in fact I have a 48 gallon mr aqua for my planted tank. I have never heard of any problems with them.

Yep, between the hole and the corner of the tank.

I had a little party breaking up the tank in the dumpster today. It was cathartic, as if turns out I have a friend who is breaking down his 65. He has offered it to me. Which is great because my wife burned up the engine in her car this week, also. Been a tough week but God is good, my family has food, and a roof. Eventually I will get a tank running and the car will be fixed.

Sorry to hear about your tank. Can I ask how the corals were doing under that light fixture? My tank is 13" deep and I have the light about 10" above. Zoas are stretching and favias are turning dark... using 3 blue plus and 1 purple plus
