Nanoreefbro's 233 gal Leemar Starphire Tank!!!

[Nanoreefbro]

Well I bit the bullet and decided to upgrade from my 150 gal. My fish were getting bigger and there were some things I wasn't completely happy with my last tank so this time around I wanted to correct those issues. I've had this tank for awhile now but with going to school, working, and trying to find someone to build a sump, and stand. I just didn't have the time until now. The tank I got this time is:

Leemar 72" x 30" x 25" Starphire front and right side
4" Eurobracing on top with no center braces
Diamond Edge, Black Silicone, Black back, black bottom
Calfo Overflow with 3 1 1/2" holes for BeanAnimal Overflow design
2 1" holes in back corners of tank

I bought about 6 boxes of the Tukani/Pukani live rock. It's really light and easy to work with.

It's been curing in my garage for about 6 weeks now...

Well I needed a sump and John Hoang from Advance Acrylics definitely stepped up to the plate. The sump was so clean and nice that I debated on using it as a sump and making it into a tank.

Anyways here are some pics of my sump

Just needs to be stained. I should be picking it up this Friday.

I spoke with John about having access to cleaning out my filter sock holder so he created a removable/adjustable filter sock holder.
