Greg's Red sea 525 xl build

Wow I love this idea for cable management, Id have to figure out how to modify it a little tho as ill be putting a TK 1000 chiller in that area to.

Cheers, yeah im using a fan in the sump, but I may have to chop the second shelf when my doser arrives. Cross that bridge when i get to it :)
 
Love the build thread! Especially the pic with the par readings. Very cool! I’ve got a build thread for my 750 if you are interested. Love the Reefer builds!

Update:

I have now fitted a second hand Apex Classic to my tank, wish I had done this at the start, such a game changer! Also added a maxspect Gyre 4k and moved the two Nero 5's to the back wall. A media reactor has also been added with Rowaphos to keep a handle on the phosphate levels.

Made a dosing container house out of a stool and attached the doser to the front, added a large RO container behind and added a float valve to the Apex break out box.
