It's looking good. I like the rework of the rock structures. I really like the dry rock for the ease of scaping outside of the tank, but I wish it didnt come with the huge diatom bloom 3 weeks after filling the tank.

Hi Reefers...
So i'm looking to go about this same route, I have same stand and tank. But before I drill I wanted to ask a few questions... How close could I drill to the ends of the tank? I'm thinking about drilling the tanks return line pretty close to the end of it, since I would like to add a 90 return loc line with a RFG on it. and on that same side a maxspect 330 pushing all that water to the over flow... Maxspects sits off the glass at 2.6 inches. What do you think? I added a picture of where I'm at before I drill...
I was thinking that! But I think it would be to way too much flow for a tank this size...this how far I’m in, I have to drill yet.. (just a template) that’s why I’m think a jecod 1000 pump and a 20 gallon high sump and the same place you bought your baffles from.. @Fotocha
Looks good -
I've used that same ATO for years without issue on multiple systems, for the money, it really can't be beat.
How do you like the stand? Is it sturdy? I'm going to be setting up a breeder soon, that stand kind of matches a lot of the decor in my home, but I'm hesitant to buy it. I've been thinking of building my own...
Good info - thanks. I’m torn between building something or going with a prefab since I don’t know if I’ll be going with a sump or not, I have equipment to go either way, I like both options but it will be an aesthetic thing for my wife. Plus - we have a 60 lb puppy / moose running around so whatever route I go needs to be super sturdy.
