Hi everyone. Thought it's about time to start a build thread here as my build seems to have gone from concept to reality now (about time). My new 140 has a lot of DIY such as...
* DIY Stand with lots of bells and whistles...auto hood lifter, auto cabinet lights, integrated frag tank/algae scrubber/storage area, birds nest hiding spot, etc.
* DIY LED light panels
* DIY Aquarium Controller(s) based off Reef-Pi
* DIY Sump/plumbing
* Custom made tank (by LFS)
* DIY water change station
* probably other stuff I'm forgetting now and lots more to come

I've been documenting everything on video and posted on YT for now. Here's the tank up and running now, and a link to my channel vids if interested.
