Those tanks cost a pretty penny. What are your plans for it? Going to raise cold water species?
 
No I was gunna bypass the compressor or try to find a way to control the temp on it. But it's Gunna be my new mixed reef
 
This should be an interesting build! Please keep us posted! :)
 
I will I got to finish the baby's room first them I get to start
 
Ok guys so as I played with the sump a little more today I am really debating on weather I should gut the built in sump and add my own or leave it as and buy a new bio wheels. Gutting it will be pretty expensive seeing as I'm going to need. Custom sump ore a small prefabbed. One the compartment for the sump is only 18" tall 23"" deep and 24" long.

With the sump already in there i don't have room for a skimmer.

What do you guys think.
