LC's 300DD build

Beast of a tank and very nice!
 
Just finished setting up my mixing/water change station this weekend. No more lugging around 5 gallon buckets.

Great job! Can you explain how it's going to work?

Thanks rev! It's a little hard to explain but I can sum it up. Water fills the right container with RO water controlled with a float valve. I can pump all the water from the right container to the left container using the mag pump that's plumbed in the middle. After that I can circulate the water around in the left tank and mix the saltwater. After the water is ready I'll connect my 1" hose to hose connection right above the pump and pump all the saltwater into the tank. Each water change will be roughly 50 gallons. I hope that made sense!
 
Great tank. Can't wait to see this mature. When did you change your T5 to the Hydras.

Thank you! Last week one of our local stores went out of business and I grabbed the three hydra 26's and 6 AI SOLs for 800. I couldn't pass up that deal. I put the new sols on my tank because they're black and matched the tank way better. And then I sold the other sols for a little less than what I paid for them a year ago.
 
Looks great! This is my all time favorite tank dimension!
Thank you! It's coming along nicely. I'm also a pretty big fan of the 300DD tank. One huge problem though is that if a frag falls to the back of the tank it's nearly impossible to retrieve! I've started using a puddy/superglue combo which has helped. Just last week though I lost my pink lemonade acro back there and I still can't find it.
