Best reef ready tank deal of 2024 - whose looking for a new tank?

I added some fender washers for the leveling pads to spread the load a little, also sealed up the bottom of the stand and clear flex sealed it up. Especially the untreated wood. Also clear caulked up all the gaps inside the stand and sealed the exposed wood for the power cord holes.

smart!

How are you all doing the entry/exit of power cords/cables/tubes? I am assuming we have to cut a hole in the back somewhere.

Also, when you cut a hole, what are you using to seal the exposed wood?

Only way in or out of the cabinet is the pass through on the top left for the plumbing. There are pass throughs at the top of each of the vertical dividers, so all wires should go up, then left, then out. If you mount a surge inside then you can reduce the number of wires running In / out.

You could also drill holes, I wouldn’t worry about sealing a small wire hole, but you can get pass through grommets (for desks and stuff) and silicone them in place
