Cancun's Red Sea Reefer 750 XXL upgrade

[Huff747]

Yea! Good for you! Are you having them bring it to your house and set it up for you?

Yeah, I’ll probably pick up the stand (in pieces) and sump so I can get that assembled and have it ready when they bring out the tank but I can’t fit the tank in my vehicle and will need help getting it into the house. Once it’s on the stand I’ll probably do the rest.

Hi! New pics I just took! [emoji16]

Some night pics I just took with blues on...

I forgot to add that I removed the top off that came with this tank, and added a 10 gallon brute trash can and used my Tuze ATO from my old tank. I can my RODI into it with another line into my big brute trash can in the basement I use for mixing saltwater. I like it much better! [emoji16]

That pic with the anemones and wrasse is a beautiful shot.

What is the light in the sump. Is that the weird water alien from the abyss?

LOL!!! [emoji23]

That is one of those motion activated cheap lights my husband mounted to the roof of the stand over the sump and the side that has all the electrical stuff......

 

[cancun]

I love the Abyss by the way! [emoji3]

Am I seeing right, that you have a flame angel in your new tank? Have you had any issues with it nipping or bothering your acans?

Hi! Yep you are seeing right! No issues so far with any coral nipping. However I just had to remove a juvi Lamarck angel and take him back to the LFS. He developed a taste for nothing but my Acans from day 1!!!! I didn't loose any of my colonies, but after I took him out my Acans look great! NO Angel is 100% reef safe IMO! [emoji16]

 

[cancun]

Look at the size of this serpent star I picked up today..... hopefully my Red Coris will leave him alone....lol...

 

[cancun]

See what mean about Acans looking better.....after the Lamarck was rehomed back to the LFS. They stayed closed most of the time because he wouldn't leave them alone! If anyone is looking for a Lamarck angel IMO they are reef safe with caution! [emoji16]

We are going straight up with it from the basement. I would think that you wouldn't have a problem pumping water 60 feet horizontal and 6 feet high. It is a pretty powerful pump.

Might try it out. I currently mix and make my water in the garage. My mixing barrel is on wheels so I move it to my daughters bedroom window and pump the water to my tank from there lol. It’s only about 20 feet from there. But from my garage it’s an easy 60’ or so.
