NUVO EXT Lagoon 50 Build

[Clayton Jessup]

Very nice @JC Reef the IM tank set up looks very nice I must say! The sump is literally a tight and clean fit. Very nice work on the plumbing/manifold. I myself have been looking at the 26in Trigger Sump for my IM EXT 30L as well. Very nicely done though ! Well done!!!

Thanks mate! The plumbing has been one crazy adventure. But @Bulk Reef Supply has made this journey very easy. Will the trigger 26" fit underneath the 30L?

Yes a trigger 26 will fit in the stand of my 30L EXT tank. Right now I am thinking of doing a 20L DIY sump that measures 30in long x 12in heigh x 12in wide and it fits just fine in my stand. I have also thought of getting a custom sump for my IM 30L EXT as well .. to make it a very high quality build.

Looks like you already have a great plan! IM is also sending me a cover for the overflow box :)

I must say having 2 RFG's was a great decision. Thank you once again @Vivid Creative Aquatics ;)

Are you sure the trigger 26 fits? I thought i saw that it was a few inches too wide. Do you have the APS stand?

Yes I am sure and yes I do have the wood finish APS stand. I found a way to open up some more space in the stand . I currently have a 20L sitting in my stand which measure 30x 12x12in. Due to the fact that I am thinking of DIY sump ideas .

The plumbing was glued last week and yesterday I finally decided to test for leaks. Not too shabby for being my 1st plumbing job on a sump. So far everything looks good... No LEAKS! ;Pompus I already need that APS shelf ;Nailbiting

@JC Reef Looking good!.. Making me want to make my purchase haha.

I got that same sump on my current tank. I was curious if it would fit inside the APS stand, which it does so that's a plus as well.

Nice! I want the 25ext lagoon, but first I have to finish my 90g. Great work!

Thanks mate. This build has been quite the adventure. Are you doing a build thread for your 90gl?

 

[minus9]

Yeah, I have a build thread, but I've been too busy with work to do a proper update. I think it's in my signature, but can't tell from tapatalk?
