Reefer 350 Build Thread

[kcondon]

I meant to do this a while back but life took over. This past December I went out and purchased a Reefer 350 as an upgrade from my first saltwater tank a biocube.

I've spent a considerable amount of time looking at equipment, plumbing, lighting and ultimately I decided I wanted to keep this simple stupid.

Equipment:
Red Sea Reefer 350
Bubble Magus Curve 5 Protein Skimmer
Ecotech M1
Ecotech MP10
2x Hydra 26 HDs
Tunze ATO
2x 25 Gallon storage tanks

Nice. I'm considering a 350 vs 250, the only issue is that I have the old tank on a section of pergo flooring with the carpeting going around it and that pergo area is 46" wide. I could cut out a strip of carpeting and add another piece of pergo to make it wider. There is a a transition strip so there is raised lip around the current edges.

I was wondering how high the feet are? How much of a gap is there from floor to tank bottom? I was wondering if I need to remove that transition strip or if it would fit in the space between the floor and the bottom of the stand.

Also I think there are 4 feet total? What is the distance between the side of the stand and the foot closest to it?

Thanks for the help!

Also is your mp10 staying on your glass ok? I hear the glass thickness may be too thick for the mp10 magnets to hold.

would you mind including a fish and coral stock list?

MP10 has no problems on the sides. I’ve had a little luck on the back glass without the rubber pad but you need a zip tie.
