FLShark Custom Rimless SCA 150 Build

FLSharkvictim · Dec 18, 2018

I am nearing the end on buying all of the equipment but I still need to get a few more items to be 100 % completed with my new build that I have been working on for over a year and a half. I wanted this tank to last for a very long time so there were no corners cut, I got all top quality equipment b/c I am a firm believer in my motto when it comes to this hobby!

''ALWAYS use quality products, I believe that 50% increase in coast is definitely worthwhile, even if you only gain another 5% of the product reliability especially if you have a mature tank with years of time and effort invested. Keep in mind that your tank is a place where water and electricity come together''

I will be starting my new Build thread as soon as I PLACE my order for my new Synergy CL44 Sump from @mixer911 this Friday. Stay Tuned Reefers!

Thanks @TheEngineer its going to be an #EPIC built there is no doubt about it! Like I mentioned above, I have been working on designing my system for a very long time and I can finally see the finish line.
After making my mind up and talking to different people who have had sumps built by companies like Building An Obsessions, Elite Aquatics, Trigger sumps, Advanced Acrylics, Banchsee sumps, Geo Reef sumps and just about every sump Mfg in the industry!
I was originally going to go with a Geo Reef SU46RD but I have recently have changed my mind since I want to use my own reactors instead of them being built in like on your Geo Reef Sumps. I have decided to finally to go with a company that is located out of California.
The company I have chosen is Synergy is building me a SS-44 in BLK&RED mercury color and I will be ordering the Matching 10gallon ATO storage container that will sit next to it. My cabinet size inside is 60'' in length so I have plenty of room for a 44'' sump and a 10 gallon ATO container w/ room to spare.
More info to come on my Build thread that I will be starting for the new system this weekend.. The main reason why I have choosen Synergy is b/c I bought there 20'' External Overflow box which runs 3 1.5inch drains and there QUALITY is Superb!

Happy Holidays,
FLSharkvictim

@NY_Caveman - I am so over due to get this tank up and running cycling it's not even funny! Finally I will be Ordering my Synergy CL-44 Sump in Blk and Red Mercury tomorrow and a matching 10 gallon ATO for the build..
I think Synergy lead time, is around 3-4 weeks due to the Blk and Red color I decided to go with. Also, will be picking up an Extra Ecotech L1, since I will be using that as my main return and use my Ecotech M1, for my dual reactors and my UV Sterilizer.
Going to be running to Return pumps in the return section of the sump. Plus, the sump will not have a refuge since I will be running a Turbo Scrubber.
