Hi everyone. It’s been awhile since I’ve been posting on R2R after a move across country. I had to tear down my nano and I have been itching for a new reef tank since. I decided this time I would get exactly the tank I wanted... so here’s my new dream tank. With the nano I had a few SPS, but had focused on LPS mostly... however I’ve got the colorful fuzzy stick bug and am going to do a predominately SPS focused build this time around.
I ordered a 100G easy reef advanced from Crystal Dynamics at the end of May, and it finally arrived just last week. Crystal Dynamics has been great to work with, and Zoya has been super responsive the whole time. The build took a while, but they travelled to MACNA in between, and I know they reconfigured the electrical door because they weren’t happy with it. The end result is a tank and stand that’s gorgeous and also really well built.
Here’s the tank, sump, stand as they arrived. The driver brought the crates into my garage easily.
Everything was also well packed and nothing broke in transit.
Took me quite a while to unpack everything. Luckily my wife is a tough cookie and helped me carry the stand and tank in, and I didn’t have to wrangle up any friends to help.
