scotturban54 150 tall

Some cable management in the stand. MP40 driver mounts off eBay.

Not 100% neat but good enough for now.

I have the same tank. Getting ready to post my build thread. Do you have two return pumps or did you split it? I am not close to plumbing yet but mentally trying to wrap my head around it. I was planning on doing only 1 return following bean animal for emergency drains.
 
This build is making me think of replacing my 75g with a 150g lol [emoji38] cuz it’s still the 48in foot print , to fit better on my 60in x 24in stand ! That I made for my 75g .. so I think I want a 150g now ! Thanks @scotturban54

I have two return pumps set up but have only been using one (Sicce 5.0) when both are on the drains can't keep up. In the future I would like to get the Neptune flow monitoring fitting and have the other turn on auto if the 5.0 Failed.
 
UPDATE: I had some old reef gear I traded in on some livestock, A pair of clowns: a mocha and a Wyoming white, some zoa frags, a pom pom crab, a mushroom, an acan lord, a peppermint shrimp, and an Orange linkia star. Tank still looks pretty empty. Probably a little while before anymore fish but maybe more coral sooner...hopefully lol.
 
Check in photo on the sump. Also just picked up an ecotech backup for a Vortech and a BRS reactor... going to have to mount where I have room left

Sump/cabinet looks clean and nicely done @scotturban54 ! How do you like the size of the 150g XH , I am still considering one of theses tank sizes ?

I bought a small ladder from Target. Now the height is no problem. I still like it.

That’s good to hear ! @scotturban54 I am really thinking of ordering one of theses in my future is there any way you could send /post sim side views of the tank where the overflow’s are ! I would love to see what the profile of the tank looks like . Thank you !
