340gallon display & Frag Room build

[nuke 208]

This build round about started in 2019 when I moved and broke down my display tank and moved all my stuff into tanks. I bought a 210 gallon display and just wasn't exited about the build so I decided to sell it. And order a 340gallon display from custom aquariums dimensions are 8'x3'x2' tall. Since I'm a trim carpenter i built my own stand.

so now as if 340 wasn't enough. As u can see my frag tanks where over loaded and mismatch so I started on the frag room. By replacing the carpet with LVP and got to work building cabinets

For tanks i decided on fijicube 75 gallon
That are 48"x 24"x18" tall lowboy are just to shallow and hard to handle flow and I wanted a redsea or waterbox look and they won't sell them only the tanks. So I landed on fijicube

So then I plumbing the two new tanks into the closet under the stairs between the frag room and the display in the living room and started moving everything over into the new tanks

Before the move i had my heater go out and wiped out alot of my sps before I caught it.

Once I had everything moved over to the new system I took down the 2 old frags tanks and started on cabinets for the other 2 frag tanks and also a floating shelve about where I can mount mount my light up inside and fished extention cords up through the wall into it so there won't be wires hanging. In photos light are just hung temporarily

Since there is no sumps under any of the tanks they are drilled for adjustable shelves cause u can never have enouph storage for saltwater gear. I also put like out counters infront of the tanks for workspace and a stand to set up the frag saw. Also some drawers for fraging supplys

 

[nuke 208]

The build continues I'm think the new frag tanks will be plumbed into the main display and used as grow out tanks. And keep the other 2 frag tanks on there own system. For incoming corals and to house frags

It will be mixed reef but going to g5 radions with t5 hybrid and a calcium reactor on that system so definitely plan to cook some sps in there
