Maxreefer's Elos "The 2nd" build

I always have been excited about my Elos Mini and the unmatched quality of the Elos sytems I decided it was time for something "bigger"

Here is a little teaser. Just look at the "Weight" if you need a hint.... :snicker:
My setup journey and progress will be posted in this thread very soon and you will see here some "goodies and newbies" from Elos introduced at the InterZoo2010.

Wow, 540lbs. How big is this bad boy gonna be? I've been thinking about an Elos tank after seeing them. Can't wait to watch the build and see it :)

 

[KLR]

Sounds nice,cant wait to see it together!

When i got my rsm250,we had to role in the stand and tank on a dolly,it was almost immpossible to pick up with just 3 people.....

 

[clowns101]

Good luck with your new set up!Sure sounds nice!

 

[skinz78]

The suspense! So are you tearing down your old setup and moving it all into the new one?

 

[MAXreefer]

Well thanks to the nice snowstorm around Chicago the tank didn't arrive today.
New arrival day is going to be Friday.
In the mean time I took the Mini down and is almost ready to go. Corals and the Snowflakes moved to the frag tank.
When everything goes well the new one will look almost like this one below but mine will be a System120
Will post the build and more details regarding all the equipment on Friday...

I would love one of the larger Elos tanks but i cant bring myself to spend the 9k price that comes with one.

 

[skinz78]

That sucks that the delivery date got pushed back, I would be very frustrated if I were you!

 

[raymond]

thats really heavy duty, what made you go this route? i bet its gonna be stellar when you get it up and going

 

[MAXreefer]

It's going to be a busy weekend.... 1smile1

 

[m and m]

Could use some help for sure...:wink:
The driver was a real nice guy and helped me pushing it up into the garage with a pallet jack. Was quite an act as we still have some snow in the driveway.

 

[m and m]

That thing is a monster, i assure you if you where any closer i would be there to help i love elos tanks.

My all time dream tank is the 120xl. One day i will be a baller and get one.
Clarity on the glass is unreal

 

[MAXreefer]

Sorry guys...For some reason the picture I posted doesn't show up anymore. Trying to fix it

 

[m and m]

I can still see all the pictures you posted just fine. Well i can see three pictures as of right now.

 

[aalvarado87]

awesome man cant wait to see the build. What is the stocking plans? does it come with its own light or what are you planning on going with? those tanks are insanely clean i like how smooth they are and i feel they're really worth the price. 540 lbs thats a lot of weight it looks like they packed it pretty well.

 

[skinz78]

WOW that looks sexy and the crate isn't even open yet! Keep the pic's coming, this is going to be a sweet tank for sure!

 

[BlazinNano]

Looks like you are gonna have fun. Can't wait to see it setup with water.

 

[MAXreefer]

Well we just managed to get this baby from the garage into the basement.
I don't know if Italian glass is heavier as US made :wink: but it was f.... heavy for sure.
More details from the equipment etc. tomorrow.
Need a break now. Rum and coke is taking care of the back pain...:angel:
All I can offer now is a quick phone pic. No lights yet etc... Details will follow soon. Promised
