The New Guy!

[The Salt]

Hello Gang!

I was looking for a new reefing forum and now I'm here! I'm in the middle of a new build and I hope to have water in it in the next couple months but I have been saying that for months now. This is my third SW aquarium and I'm just trying to do it right. It's glass and on the smaller side at 63 gallons. It was made to order to fit in my home office hints the odd volume. I will create a build thread when I get a little closer to adding water.

Thanks for reading.

Welcome Salty, and that is an interesting font! Looking forward to your build thread.. I swear I think that's why I join forums... just to see these builds and the equipment shots! :xd: At 63 gallons.. is the tank custom?

Welcome to R2R. Don't hesitate to start a build thread so we can follow the progress. Build threads are where I get all my ideas, haha.

Welcome to R2R.. I have a 65 gallon and love it, so don't dispair. Looking forward to the pics. Also, what are the dimensions and why did you decide to go custom?

Yes the tank was custom made by Visio.

It is 36in x 20in x 19in tall. I went custom because I wanted to get the largest tank for the room I have here in my home office. My first SW tank was 29 gallons and the second was a 55 tall. The 29 was too small and the 55 tall was a pain to work on. I also made my own stand and canopy to help with the low ceilings I have in the room.

What direction are you taking your tank coral-wise? Consdiering this isn't your first tank, I am going to guess Mixed Reef or SPS dominant?

Welcome to r2r! The dimensions of your tank sound great! I am sure visually it looks bigger than 63g. We are kindof in the same boat. I had most of my set up for almost a year and am now FINALLY at the point where I am ready to add water. Very exciting, looking forward to seeing your build.

Interesting, that's almost exactly the same size as my tank! I also wanted the biggest tank I could fit between the windows in my home office which were 36" apart.
