75g Rimless Crystal Dynamic - Build Thread

[MaddyP]

Finally glued down all the loose zoanthids floating around my tank! Picked up some additional equipment from a friend who is taking a break from the hobby and it included a cute little tank perfect for a zoa garden. New build thread to come!

I just got done reading this whole Thread. I'm looking at your automated Ball Valve project also. Can you tell me where you bought the Wire Raceway?

Sure! It was through Amazon.

My urchin has been carrying this colony of zoa’s since they were only 3 polyps. It’s nearly as big as him now!!!

@MaddyP , Very nice set up so far!! Quick question, how many gallons can you run through that Roller Mat? See, I am getting ready to place a order for my sump and I was wondering what the MAX GPH CAN THAT Roller Mat HANDLE??
I was going to buy two Klir filter systems but my buddy told me to hold off since he was having a lot of problems with the 2 units.

I’m currently running 600 gph through the filter without issue. I think it could easily handle 800 gph if the float switch was adjusted.

I will be running 2500 gallons gph, so they will not work for me, per the MFG!!

Thanks! The 3-way ball was working great when I took the system down last month. I'm hanging on to it for a larger build down the road.
