[Living Reef Orlando]

Hi everyone!! This will be a progress thread of our new 800 Gallon SPS/Broodstock Display tank. Super excited to get this thing going. Hopefully it will be running mid April!!

Wanted to give a quick shoutout to everyone who has helped with the build.
Ecotech Marine, Fritz Aquatics, CoralVue, Neptune Systems, Ryan@HPE Automation, Tyler@EliteAquatics, Bob and Karen@ExoticAquariums, and Caribsea. Thank you very much guys!

We have started plumbing the tank and hope to be done with that this week. Ill keep posting regular updates as we Aquascape the tank, get the cabinetry installed, and finish the build. This tank is going to be stuffed full of cool features and tech, so check back to see some cool stuff!

Ill stop mumbling now and drop some pics lol!!!

Misumi USA is another option (much more affordable). I've used Misumi several times for extruded aluminum stands.

I think they are super busy bringing all the goodies to RAP. I stopped by yesterday and the tank is in the same condition as the original picture.

So no different than the previous owner. Bought a big tank and sump and just let it sit there?
