The Brown's 120g Upgrade Build

[MikeB]

Tank's are looking good!! 1 thing i might ask you to rethink is the filter sock placement. Mine start to overflow after a few days and need to be changed. If you keep them on that platform you run the risk of spillage when they get clogged. Just my opinion but other than that it looks great! Lots of frags of those ones FedEx killed for us so come summer i'll be sure to send you over a PM :)

It's funny you mention that! Its already happened. Yes I have been thinking of the placement. I will be removing it soon and move it down 2 inches. This way if it overflows again. no spillage.

FedEx... Don't remind me of that shipment LOL. I least we both one. You got all money back and I got a claim from fedex. It just sucks the frags died because of their mistake.

Yeah it does suck. I finally got some of those VDM's from ATL just before yours so i still have them but i do need the other two still. Sorry i couldnt get the filter sock question to you before it overflowed!!

Some updated photos of the frag tank. I built the custom hanging light for it and got a 400W Lumemax (sp?) and a Coralvue dimmable ballast

Its getting painted Tomorrow so I will have some updates soon. I have to order the Sunlight Hanging kits and then install it over the frag tank. Then water and frag go in WOOT

Here are some pictures

No one will see the top but I wanted to show anyways

Is the frag tank plumbed into the display?

I love the frag tank!
I'm thinking of adding one just like it. But don't really want to build it myself.
Who or what is Ocea?

Frag tank looks amazing! I remember when you originally posted that you were going to have Ty build it, but I hadn't been on since. I really love your suspended canopy, that is exactly what I was talking to Ty about building to match the stand. Can you give me the approx. dimensions of the canopy and a guess on the weight?

Thanks!

One of the nicest frag tanks I've seen. Nice job.
