Hi guys, I have had tanks off and on since 2008 ranging from planted, wild discus, wild Angelfish, and reef aquaria. I currently have two systems made up or three UNS R line tanks that I have quickly outgrown. After owning the UNS line I decided to find something that fixed the few issues I ran into and landed on Waterbox. I went with the 330.7 due to wanting something large enough to house my ever growing coral collection as well as larger fish. The tank should be delivered on Wednesday the 7th so I will try to do my best to document as I go.

Equipment list is as follows -

Waterbox 330.7
Luna-Reef 6018
ATI Straton X - 4 units
Vortech MP-40 - 4 units
Royal Exclusiv Supermarin 200 +
Royal Exclusiv Red Dragon 5
Royal Exclusiv X 40w Pump ( reactors )
Royal Exclusiv 5L and 2L reactors
Full hydros system
AquaUV 57W
300w heater - 2 units with dedicated controller
Pax Bellum N18

And my current systems!

Probably won't be a problem but I just remembered, I had a small burr on one of the fittings that caused a very small leak. I ended up seeing it after I took a picture and zoomed in. It cleaned up easily enough with sandpaper but I'd inspect all the fittings before assembling.

Ok thanks, I will be using metric x standard unions and changing everything out so I should be fine.
 
Following along!
