I got a 55 gallon tank and stand from a neighbor and cleaned it up and resealed it.I had to modify the stand to make room for a sump below the tank. I found an old sump at a local fish store for about 30 bucks, but plan on redesigning the interior elements to better suit my needs. I’ve been slowly ordering the things I need for a reef tank lights, pumps, etc. I’ve moved some outlets around and been researching basically any and every element I can think of before I dive in head first.
