My new 90 gallon build.

Awesome build! Btw where did you get the glass for the sump? I've been looking everywhere for my tank build and can't seem to find glass with a decent thickness

So I got a lot done this week. Next thing is to install the stand.

Did you leave enough room on both sides to put power heads in? A friend just did an in wall and did leave enough room for a power head on one side.

 

[bottled-ocean]

Yea I have about 4 in on the right side. That's enough room for my mp10.

This is great! My first real true reef tank was also a 90 gallon I setup back in 2005. Today I run a 110 gallon, which is the same tank but just a few inches taller. It's a great footprint!

My biggest set back on the 110 was the glass was too thick for MP10's. I was planning on using 4 of them for a specific flow pattern I wanted to setup. I ended up having to go with two MP40's instead.

For lighting, I use AI Hydra26's perpendicular to the tank and I still have room for 1 HO on each side. I like this much better than running the pucks down the center of the tank. It feels like the lighting has more depth. Not sure what you plans are and certainly not dictating what you should do, but give that some thought.

So how much snowboarding you get done in Orlando :D I will be heading there in February, but its to take the kids to see the mouse.

Looking good, following along

Work in progress.

My comment specific to this picture is you may need to isolate the wires for your probes from the electrical wires. The pH, ORP and Conductivity probes are very prone to electrical interference and if they are routed with anything electrical will give you some pretty wild readings. So far it all looks good and separated but as you further route your cables, keep that in mind.

I'll tell you what I think. I think it looks awesome!!

 

[bottled-ocean]

Thanks for every ones comments. I appreciate the input and will consider rerouting the pH probe.

Tim the-tool-man-Taylor would be proud! Nice work. Very nice.

You are going to want to move that probe rack up. The Apex classic probes cannot be fully submerged. I *think* the new double junction probes on the 2016 model can, but the Classic can not. I keep the acrylic probe rack at water level, this keeps the probe tips submerged by the tops dry.
