"Drop-off" tank style

[SammieT]

I love the 20 I used to run a 150 with a 100 gallon basement sump had to sell due to a move. I miss not being able to get what fish I wanted and have all the space. But I love how easy a water change is and I don’t run a skimmer in my 20’s. They to me seem a lot easier to care for. Also lighting is a lot easier and cheaper one light will cover the 20 no problem.

What kind of lights did you use?

you got good coverage with the 160? I cant think of a good lighting for my incoming 70gallon

The 160 is perfect but it is only over a 20 gallon tank. Depending how deep your 70 is you might want to get 2 360’s.

Ifalos Seriphos, early days yet, shipped all the way from Greece....

How much was the tank and how did you contact them?

Very beautiful, what kind of lighting did you go with?

Many Thanks. Main Lighting is a ReefBreeders Photon V2+, an AI 16 Prime now lights the drop off section.

The tank was made as two separate tanks from Glass Cages. They cut the bottom of the longer aquarium short to create the opening for the smaller "drop-off" aquarium which I then rigged up to the top aquarium. I used a series of jacking screws and shims to get the bottom aquarium up tight and siliconed to the upper. To hide the seem I glued on a black acrylic strip.

Digging up an old thread, but I had this exact scenario pop into my head for a drop-off aquarium made from a Red Sea peninsula.

How has it held up, any issues? Thanks
