Hello guys. Just wanted to post a new edition to my reef Eco Family. It's still a bit young about 15 months old. It is an old school glass 150 (Well actually a 145). It's an All-Glass tank. The thing is a tank (pun definitely intended[emoji6]).
I found it on CL for $200, it was in great shape. It has double overflows and only had a small scratch on the bottom left corner. I re did all the silicone and painted the back blue. He is the way I currently have the set up running.....of course I am always tweaking.....
