Been out of the hobby for a few years now as I have been bouncing around the country, but have finally purchased my first house and it's time to set up a tank.
Found an SCA 150 setup for sale locally and jumped on it. Started ordering stuff before I even had the tank because I couldn't pass up Black Friday sales
Here's the current equipment list:
60x24x24 SCA 150 tank and custom stand ( 59.5x23.5 internal dims)
Trigger CR44 sump
Reefmat 1200 (new to me, these didn't exist last I had a tank)
Neptune COR20 return pump
AquaUV 25W UV sterilizer
Aquamaxx DRC-3 skimmer
Hercules titanium 1000w heater
(2x) MP40qd
(3x) Reefi Uno 2.0 pro led fixtures
48" aquatic life t5 hybrid fixture
160 lbs of Fiji pink sand
150 lbs Marco Rock
Tank moved in yesterday, working on the plumbing design now since it was all soft plumbed by previous owner. Not my strong suit so welcome all input. Next purchases will be controller and setting up a cabinet for all of the electronics.
3 hole overflow, thinking Dorso with an emergency drain. Return T off to lock line on both sides of the overflow.
- not sure the best way to plumb in the UV as I have never had one before. Primary goal would probably be algea control assistance.
Excuse my horrendous drawing skills
