50 gallon lowboy lagoon tank

[Tmeyers]

So, due to some unforseen circumstances, I had to sell my 120. In the midst of everything I ended up saving a 380 Gallon tank from being destroyed in a home that was being sold. Here in Phoenix we have a local shop called Discount Aquarium. Awesome shop, sells Second hand tanks and equipment, and also noew stuff. They took in the 389 for me and gave me some store credit, that I have used to get a 50 gallon lowboy, stand and 20 gallon long sump. So I am now gonna build myself a lagoon reef. Super excited about it. Gonna start myself a new build thread on this tank.

I like lagoon tanks; a lot easier to access everything.

Is there a sump? It looks like an external overflow?

I'm really bad about getting progress photos lol. But so far so good. Got everyone out of the 55 long and in the lowboy. Thinking I'm gonna build a waterfall with some of the rock and put it in the right corner of the tank. Gotta get corals placed this weekend and move a few other rocks around. But I am loving the way it looks. I'll add some more photos later.

I have a lowboy with a synergy reef drilled to it I had set up as a frag tank. Its either going to be set up or sold soon. Would love to see some progress for some inspiration. Haha
