Great looking build. Very clean look. I am impressed by the improvements RS has made to their tanks and stands. Following along.

Scape looks great!Hello Everyone!
Started to come together. But I am taking is slowly, feeling I might have bitten off a little more than I thought. But up for the challenge.
Ordered the tank about a month ago, it arrived 4 days after I ask them to hold it. Got it moved into place (talk about HEAVY)
Have a general ideal of the corals and fish that I want in their new home. But it is always subject to change for me second by second.
I have been gluing, like crazy over the last 3 days coming up with the aqua scape. What do you think?
Found out I almost make a mistake on the one on the right, the base was almost TOO BIG. The euro bracing on the bottom of the tank almost interferes with it being flat on the glass.
More to come over the next few weeks, months and years. Happy to be back in the water!
Ideals and suggestions greatly appreciated ... Paul

Mainly for redundancy. But also I could adjust the flow in the tank if needed. I am running UV on one of the pumps too.

How do you like Sicce pumps ? I always had Red Dragons but this time trying to save a few bucks . You think 2 model 7’s will not be sufficient if one pump will go to straight return and other to manifold ?

Thank you for your feedback.
I ordered 2 GHL Versia -9 for this set up. Versia have Sicce -9 motorblock and all electronics by GHL.
Also, would you mine measure eurobrace .how wide .. I was told its 4" all around from one person other telling me about 2".

Welcome, anytime.
Had a custom lid made for the tank. From Top Lids. They did a great job. Took lots of measurements.
