I inherited a standard 55 long and the first thing i did was drill an overflow and return, customize the stand, add a sump and heres the result. Im upgrading from a 29 biocube that i setup about 7 years ago, retrofitted with custom leds 3 years ago. Its been a long month getting things setup, parameters trended the typical ammonia spike and now i go on vacation for a week. Once back in town, time to start making additions! Just wanted to share my setup!
