Alright decided to go ahead and make a build thread for my future tank. After researching for some time and weighing the pros/cons of many different company’s I have settled on a Fiji Cube tank/stand/sump. The tank will be the Fiji Cube 142 ext measuring in at 60x24x24. I chose to go with this company due to the many reviews that I have came across attesting to the company’s quick response and great customer service, along with very high quality products. This tank will be a mixed reef tank as I am not drawn to any certain type of coral and I love the swaying and movement of euphyllia.
equipment will be as follows:
Tank-Fiji Cube 142ext 60x24x24
Cabinet-Fiji Cube
Sump-Fiji Cube Fiji-30 30x15x16
