I am downsizing from a Reefer Peninsula 500 and this time around, I'm hoping to do it right.

- Clean, sexy aesthetic that doesn't look like a lab experiment gone wrong
- Hoping to have enough storage here to tuck away all of my reef tech
- Making serious efforts to eliminate extraneous cables while also making for easy equipment removal

I wish you luck. I sometimes want to downsize also. But I think I am stuck with my 70 plus saltwater mollies.
 
Man, this baby took forever to get this close to being started.

My goal here was to come up with a way to fit the tank and all equipment, wires, etc. in one tiny NYC apartment room while maintaining a clean, minimalist, professional looking setup....that is easy to service.

Right now I'm filling it up with water...more photos and details to come and I put the finishing touches (doors, rocks, equipment, etc) on.

Yeah, more pics!
What does the adj pc100A control?
Do you have a battery backup for a few of the wavemakers?
 
Congratulations, looks great :)
