Hello everyone, it’s time to officially introduce myself to the R2R community by starting a build thread! I’m very excited to share this with you as this will be my first custom aquarium build. [emoji108]
So here’s the plan:
The tank dimensions will be 48x30x24, which should be approximately 150 gallons, made by Luna Reef Customs. (More or the builder to come.)
I will be using a T-Slot Aluminum stand made by FramingTech and plan to wrap it with a furniture grade panel of some sort.
For the filtration I’ve decided to do something a little different. I’m going to attempt to combine a display refugium on the front portion with a rear sump to house the protein skimmer and any other mechanical filtration that I decide to use in the future. Hopefully the picture explains it better than me. Lol!
I’m looking for to sharing every step with you by I’ll stop here for now. I’ll be giving updates and more information as the build progresses. Here are a few pics of the initial draft plans.
Thanks for viewing everyone!!
