Just wanted to start a build thread, I've had a few people ask where to follow along and for me to do a build thread. I post everything on my Instagram bur not everyone has an IG. Here it goes! Any questions just ask. It'll be mostly pics.

Ok I am loving what you have done with the stand, the finish is beautiful. As is the plumbing!

The finish is just an ebony stain, wipe on eipe off, the white inside is an acrylic latex, both for less than 20 bucks!

Coming along nicely, I used to have the Nuvo 30L a couple years back... Mine didn't have a Sump though.

Best of luck

Installed the brs mini 5" reactor to the manifold today!

Thinking my dosing pump should go here with the auto top off underneath!

I just noticed the iron pipe light mount. That is TOO cool. I’ve been trying to come up with a way to incorporate industrial/reclaimed style to my 30L build. Now you’ve got me thinking...

 

[Chris oliveria]

It wasn't cheap but I think it looks good lol. Hope it inspires you!

Got my carbon / gfo reactor in. Just waiting on my ato reservoir, which should be here Monday!

It's a 20 gallon long from petco. I used a teiton baffle kit from eBay!

Got the doser lined up and the bottles mounted.

Super clean install on the doser, what type of container are you planning on for the ato?

I have a 4x12x12 coming from "advanced acrylics" it's only about a 2.5 gallon reservoir but I'ts all that'll fit.. Lol I'll have a foat valve in it though attatched to my rodi with an automatic shut off valve. It should be just fine

Was just about o ask what reservoir you find so tiny! I got one from advanced acrylics, beautiful and great price. Post pics when it arrives!
