Welcome!Hello, I used to have a 45g diamond front and a 75g fowlr tank over a decade ago
took plunge again and have a 55g breeder essentially, can’t drill it.
down the line I will get a sump and what not but for time being are there any HoB fuge boxes that are worthwhile? I’ve seen some breeder boxes that can double as them too
what are some pitfalls to setting up in tank using acrylic or glass baffles? I can take my time with this build and do not want to rush anything
any feedback is appreciated
Welcome to the salty family Phil! My experience is stronger in sumps, so I'll defer to the HOB guys. Just wanted to send some words of encouragement!Hello, I used to have a 45g diamond front and a 75g fowlr tank over a decade ago

Hello Lisa! I used to be a paying member over a decade ago, I signed up to be a member again, waiting to see how things have changed before joining formally again.Welcome!
I'm Lisa and here in metroplex too! Our local club DFWMAS is pretty active, so that is another resource for you if you are looking for used equipment. Recently saw some sumps and tanks offered, if you wanted to use HoB plumbing to go to/from sump and have refugium. j
Smart to take your time on build, but defer to others on your baffle question
I will PM you if you'd like some from my tank; free baggie & curbside pickup.Hello Lisa! I used to be a paying member over a decade ago, I signed up to be a member again, waiting to see how things have changed before joining formally again.
I live near dfw airport, do you know of a good place to find local established sand? I have a few bags coming from stores but I was hoping someone local had some from an established tank I could buy. Any help is appreciated
