ESHOPPS Mariner Show Off Thread!

[tbrown]

Alright, let's get this party started! There are show off threads for Clean Up Crews, Wrasses, different coral varieties, etc. There's no aquarium show off threads showcasing specific aquariums. Let's showcase those @ESHOPPS.INC Mariner Aquariums.

I'll start.

So last year @ESHOPPS.INC graciously donated one of their brand new line of Mariner Aquariums to be given away on Reef2Reef and I was selected as the lucky winner of that giveaway. I set the tank up around the first part of this year. The tank arrived on January 12, 2024 and I begun assembling and getting it wet on January 20th. The tank was set up and put in "Run" mode right around February 5th.

I stated moving fish and corals over to this tank shortly after that and it's been running like a dream ever since! I gotta say, I love my Mariner 70.

If you've got one of the new ESHOPPS Mariner Tanks, show it off here! I've seen several others on Reef2Reef that have these in the 100 and 130.

Hi, I ended up with an Innovative marine EXT100. I decided to go for an external bean animal overflow style.

Awesome to find some info on these system! I'm really looking into possibly getting the 130, but also would really love a 6ft. If they come out with one of those I'm definitely in line lol.

I made it pretty easy to do I am doing this tank like I will never change it’s the biggest tank I can fit in the space and it’s built so well I am not worried at all unlike with my last redsea tank .
