Marineland 125 gallon reef ready tank. I got it from a local reefer family. I drained it and hauled it to my house. Don't think I'll water test it since I drained it and adopted some of the fish he had. But the Caroline algea I tried to remove what I could for hours on end. It was 90 percent worse than the picture below. Now to figure out how to get my sump in the stand.

I haven't updated this for a while. So here it is. Not a finished product. But close. Is it ever a finished project?

Future plans is to build a new stand. 30 inch tall stand is a little to low. I couldn't hard plumb it. So want to build a new stand.

I got all the 4x6 cut and sanded but haven't put it together yet. life just got in the way. hoping to start putting it together this weekend. or I may stain everything and paint the wood before putting it together. than just move it down into the basement to build it once its all painted.
