Pruettnc's 50 gallon low boy frag tank

[Pruett-nc]

I wanted a bigger frag tank since my small one was getting crowded . I researched frag tanks and found a couple of posts on differnt sites about this frag tank called a low boy by zoo med .
I researched and researched and everyone I found a site that sold them had a disclaimer that they do not ship . I went to my local fish forum and posted a message on if anyone knew locally where I could find and I got a pm telling me my lfs could order ( never entered my mind to ask before lol ) .
I ordered and little by little I built a non fancy stand and got it set up and cycling .

The tank - 50 gallon low boy by zoo med.
Sump -r100 by eshopps
Return pump- sicce 5.0
Overflow-synergy ( not ghost 1st gen )
Bean animal type drain .
3/4" return
1.5 drains
2 x kessil 160's
Currently have two small trays with sand for rock flowers and ricordeas .
Will have rest of tank with black egg crate .
