howdy yall! This is my first tank "build" so I thought I should start this thread to show the progress. Its a 40 breeder with a small eshopps overflow box on it with a sicce nano and a 3/4 return. for the sump its just a basic 20 long that I converted with the fiji cube baffle kit (its just full of rock at the moment but I plant on running a protein skimmer and fuge down the road) the whole system is being powered by the amazon special 900 gph jebao return pump. Don't judge ghetto saran wrap lid, I'm waiting on a lid and with living in Colorado I need a lid or I will be topping off every few hours. At the moment the tank is cycled and has my two clowns from my other tank in it but I'm going to let the tank run without a light or corals for another month so the ugly phase does take over my life. overall that's the gist updates will come very soon!

No update yet, I've just been letting the tank run dark for the last 3 weeks with copapods. Once I've hit 6 weeks I will start throwing my coral into it and start adding fish!

Sorry for such a late post, I've gotten lost in the tank, if you would like to see more of my tank go look at my Instagram @penguinsreef. Well any how here's a short poorly shot video of my tank
