Starting a build on a 750XXL. Already have a 525 that will convert to LPS and softies later. I am doing this one differently in that I am going bare bottom and full Zeovit from the start. I converted the 525 to Zeo and am loving the results.

Major equipment this far

750XXL Deluxe - came with AI but upgrading to Reefspec90 (4)
Red Sea 900 skimmer
Skimz-157 Zeovit Reactor
Clarisea 5000 roller mat
Apex full system
COR20 return pump
Finnex Ti 800w
MP40’s (2) for now
Tropic Marin Pro Reef Salt
Sump LED lights.
AquaRocks “Fragralabra” custom sculpture 50 heads

What a beast! Movers set the tank. Suction cups a MUST.

The AquaRocks “Fragralabra” is in place.

That will look great when it is covered in corals! If you squint real hard you can already start to see it! ;Watching

Slick rock scape. How did you cycle it so fast? Is all your Bio media in the sump?

Yes- media is in sump, transferred media from other cycled tank and Zeovit start. We will see? It’s following the Zeo start guide. Parameters have been holding at my targets though. My pictures and thread were also behind the actual build pace. Emergency elsewhere made ramping this one quicker a necessity.

Where did you get the aqua scape? That’s so cool!
