Hey reefer!!
Im Robert this is my first thread but not my first build. Here a little background or the 411 about me. I have doing this for a bout 3 or 4 years. I have upgraded my tank about 4 times. It so addicted!!! I cant help it. Right now I have the 56g and the 10g but I want to do more tank so my friend and I decided it was okay to set up at his apt along with his 40b. What an awesome friend he is right? This build is going to be little slow due to $$$$. This set up is going to be 40b Sps dom going minimalist style. This build is going to be different because there be two 40b connect to another 40b(sump). What am I hoping to achieve this? Having enough flow to eliminate the need of the ugly powerhead sticking out in the in the tank and have good coral growth and not to mention see how quiet can the overflow be without the box. This 40b will be drilled for three holes. One hole will be the overflow bulkhead and the two other will be the return. As far as light im still debating on going the D.I.Y or get the plug and play lights fixture same as for the skimmer. So here is the tank slowly progressing. So here the pics
drilling these holes scared me
