Shaggy’s 90g

[Shaggymc]

howdy.

Just getting started, but figured it’s best to start documenting right away.

Just drilled my Craigslist 90 gallon find

3 holes for 1” bulkheads in the middle, 2- 3/4” bulkheads on the sides for the return.

Great start @Shaggymc and welcome to R2R!

And we like pictures a lot on here by the way.

Got to spend a bit more time on it this weekend. (Hoping to get water in it before I’m back out of town, fingers crossed)

Have to finish everything on the back before water, as I won’t be able to move it against the wall once it is full.

Old trick (I’m not sure if I did this myself first or saw someone else do it)
I use lighting diffuser plastic in the bottom of my tank, to keep the rock off the glass, and absorb any falls.

Mixing water

Lots of water from my Amazon RODI


Going to adapt this bioball sump for my sump and refug.

Tight squeeze, and had to do some cutting, but the sump is in. (Using a Remora Hang on Skimmer, as it came with my tank)


Now to start plumbing. Measure once, cut once, recut, measure again, throw that piece out, measure a couple more times.
