rebuilt my 300 and upgrading everything :)

[glamisracers]

Hello fellow reefers well its time to rebuild my 300 gal tank and stand so while i'm at it i decided to upgrade everything. first off I woke up one morning to the side panel blown out and leaking this was the 4th time it has sprung a leak thanks to the AWESOME local lfs that "built" it lol so after my house flooded for the last time and hearing my wife tell me to get rid of it or fix it ourselves i decided to fix everything properly and upgrade. SO right now i'm in the finishing stages of the stand just have to skin it and stain it. so let the pics and updates begin first off the stand i will take pics of the equipment later and also the AWESOME Reef Radiance LEDS i received today from Rick Happy reefing !

on the stand i am adding 18" to the front for a bar top so when i get kicked out of bed i have a place to relax lol also going to put granite on the top

tlf 550 reactors im going to run carbon and gfo

bubble magus curve 9 skimmer w bubble plate

Dang, with all the blow outs did your LFS help out with the cleanup expenses?

 

[glamisracers]

He replaced my livestock once but then the right side had no silicone and the only thing holding it together was the 2x4 top rim and thats why it blew for the last time i bought a new front glass pane as i got ****** and broke it lol . Its been a disaster for the past year with this tank but time to fix that myself

 

[glamisracers]

But no he didn't help with clean up expenses ad i live in AZ so my house is all tile so it just flooded the kitchen and garage
