Just getting started on this. Have the tank ordered and stand is being built, but I am at least 3-4 weeks from even getting it wet.
Already have a Smart ATO, so that's covered.
This brings me to lighting...
My initial plan was an ATI sunpower 6x80 fixture. I have been toying with the idea of either 3 Hydra 52HDs or 4 Hydra 26HDs though... I will probably just make a separate thread on this.
One of my main priorities is reducing sound (hence the DC pumps) and light leakage (hence the canopy).
- 135 gallon custom tank, starphire front, dual corner overflows (1.5" drain, 1" return) (72x18x24). I wish I could have done 24" depth, but just didn't have the room, and didn't want the extra water weight + volume for water changes.
- custom stand+canopy, built to wife-spec
- Trigger systems sapphire 39" sump
- RO Elite 200 INT skimmer
- Vectra M1 return
- 2x MP40 QD for flow (I already bought one of these to improve flow in my 55. This thing is amazing!)
- ReefLink
- Caribsea special grade (not sure how much yet)
- probably 75lbs dry rock, plus the rock I have in my 55
