90 gallon build
Hello I just joined the forum after getting my first zoos. So far I like the forum a lot. Thought I would introduce my 90 gallon tank build.
Equipment list
90 gallon tank 60"x18"x20"
Tek 4 54w T5HO (Blue+,Midday,Actinic,Blue+)
Iwaki wmd 40rlxt pump (replacing it with a panworld)
Reef Octopus NW-200 Skimmer
55 Custom built tank/refugium
I chose to build my tank in a wall that divided the kitchen,family,dining,and living room. The tank is and island design which is viewable from all sides.I have three holes in the middle. One for a 2" overflow stand pipe and the others for returns. I Just finished setting up my tank so now its pretty bare and desolate.
Heres the wall which i knocked down.
Heres the tank with only the stand.
Here are some holes i did on the floor to route my plumbing under the ground and up the roof coming out outside. Plumbing is to do water changes from outside.
Here is some of the stand exterior frames, (made of mahogany)
Heres the tank with some plumbing done
Sump plumbing (sump design from melevsreef)
Here Im testing the the tank with water.
The rockscaping in the tank.
Tank with lights on. (lights will be lower)
