65G Cichlid tank with 40G Sump/planted refugium

Thank you, and that would be a life size Osama target that bleeds when you shoot it looks just like him in the SouthPark S5 Ep9 Osama bin laden has farty pants. It's my buddies garage, not even my house. Hahaha.

Don't forget the drum set and mini manual table top mill, that's cool stuff too.

I'm not at all forgetting about the drum set as well as the mini manual table top mill, all I'm saying is that most people don't hide Osama in their garage haha!

The 40B sump is built. Big thanks goes out to @NHreefguy. Those silicone beads are awesome! I'm very happy to see that 150 skimmer fit so well. 14.5" refugium/frag rack, and ample room for the DCT 8000.

Nice work on the sump. I just bought a 40b for a sump as well. Gonna have to do something with the baffles too. Been looking at the Exotic Marine kit.

Skimmer gets a 2-1/4" lift using some egg crate. Putting the water line at 8-3/4" on the skimmer.

Some updates, just haven't got pictures yet. New sand is coming this week. Need to put in a Marco rock order, another 165W wifi LED, and a bunch of black egg crate. Should have water in it soon!

Looking great!!

Thank you very much I'm excited, but nervous. More nervous than if it was starting out fresh, it'll be my first reef transfer.

As a matter of fact i do have an update! Itll make reefers a little sad but as of monday this has become my new Cichlid setup.

Its a little cloudy here but last night it was all cleared up.

 

[stevo01]

My 55 gallon will become my planted Malaysian river tank, and the 30 gallon will become my new SW quarantine tank for the RS 525XL.
