Posting up my build thread for fun!!
Lost my 30 gallon cube reef and 90 gallon frag tank to a house fire last May.

Started this Tank in January 2016.

I chose a Innovative Marine Nuvo Fusion 10 tank due to its sleek appearance and small footprint.

Equipment:
Nuvo Fusion 10
Radion XR15
Tunze Silence 1073.008 return pump
Cobalt Neo Therm Heater
IM Media Caddy Basket
Oolite Bahama Sand
13.2 Gallons Nutri Sea Water
8lbs Pukani Dry Rock
Refractometer
Digi Thermometer
Ecotech MP10 Quiet drive
IM Minimx Reactor

Media:
Filter Floss
Chemi Pure Blue nano
Bio pellets in reactor

I wanted to keep my budget around $1000 for all equipment and I spent $979.21 on all new stuff.

*Like Christmas Day for a reefer, BRS excellent packaging*
