Hello all. After a nearly 2 year break I am back and ready to go. I recently picked up a year old RSR 750 XXL and have it sitting in the basement waiting for a refresh of the room where it will be housed. I have a few international business trips in the next 6 weeks, so it’ll be a late April before I get it set up and filled.

I will have have a water station with twin 65 gallon tanks.

Thinking a custom life reef sump though that would delay the start a bit

GHL will manage - top off, auto water change, etc

Still uncertain on Abyzz A100 or A200 - Thoughts?

Equipment List
Abyzz Pump
Lifereef Skimmer
Geismann Spectra 72”
GHL ProfiLux
GHL Doser 2.1

I suspect that there will be an Alk controller at some point after establishment.

Tampa Bay Live Rock “the package” for certain

I am contemplating removing the overflow box, sealing the holes in the bottom of the tank by laminating glass over them and using a ghost overflow.. has anyone done this?

Looks like a great start for a big tank. Welcome back to reefing!
