Just made a template and routed it out . I got the acrylic from amazon 1/4 12x12 sheet. I cut it the same size as the insert then I used weld on 16 glued the insert in place … worked perfectly

Just some updates on the tank, got a UV sysytem installed the other day. Icecap 40W UV fits perfect under the stand. Also picked up a bunch of coral and a blue throat wrasse and a mimic tang over the weekend

Love the additions! Those corals sure look happy too

Do you need to plug a return line into the roller mat ?

Pretty much done with my fish room

You've got so much going on in there!

Now you just need to figure out where to put the QT and Frag tanks.

Awesome setup! Is the DT just on the other side of the wall?

Beautiful tank and setup. I am currently interested in purchasing this tank at a local shop to me. Is the tank noisy at all?

No I can’t hear it unless I am standing next to it . It’s the quietist tank I have owned. And I have owned many .

I have the 100 version and have no complaints about the noise.

 

[tbrown]

70 here! As long as you adjust the gate valve underneath it's very quiet.

Thanks for the info guys!
