New 57 gallon Fiji Cube build

[angsess]

Hi all. I set up a 15 gallon cube a couple of months ago and am loving it. I just finished plumbing my 57 gallon Fiji Cube.

There is a ball valve on the main drain, you just can’t see it in the front facing photo.

Rocks and sand added. Making RODI to leak test. Wish me luck!

Tank is finally leak-free and ready for salt. All of our glued joints were fine, but we had a stubborn leak from one of the drain bulkheads. I ended up having to take some things apart and sand down some imperfections on the bulkhead flange to get it to seal, but we have been leak-free with the pump running for 24 hours now. I will be picking up my Turbo Start 900 on the way home and adding salt tonight. I am planning to wait until tomorrow to add the Turbo Start, so the salt has time to mix thoroughly. I will add some pictures tonight.

We reworked the rock work to give more fish real estate, and we are cycling.
