I started this project in May of 2018 when I ordered a custom tank and stand from Crystal Dynamic Aquariums. The tank is 76X29X24. The stand is epoxy coated steel with a wood wrap. The plan is for this to be an SPS dominated system. Below is a list of equipment that will be used on this tank.
-Sump: @Crystal Reef Aquatics Triton TRS60
-Lighting: ATI Sunpower 8X60”
-Refugium Light: Kessil A160
-Skimmer: Life Reef Custom 27”
-Skimmer Pump: Fluval SP-4
-Heaters: 2 Eheim 200 watt
-Return Pump: Fluval SP-4
-Powerheads: 2 Maxspect Gyre 250’s
-Controller: 2016 Apex
-Automatic Water Change: DOS
-Calcium Reactor: Geo CR612X2
-Regulator: Carbondoser
-Peristaltic Pump: Kamoer
-ATO: Tunze 3155 with BRS Top Off Doser
I am currently working on plumbing. Once done, I will perform a leak test. If there are no leaks, I will begin filling the tank with RODI next week. Below are some pictures of my progress.
AWC lines, ATO line and emergency overflow.
Tank and stand delivered.
Ramp to move the tank and stand into the house.
Tank and stand in place!
Sump in place.
Light hung.
Canopy built.
Electric Panel added.
Working on plumbing.
That is where things are at today. More to come soon!
