My plan is to build and stand and plumb this 40 breeder into my waterbox 130! Probably be a winter project tho
I want to do something similar to house my clowns. I have a basement sump so it'd be super simple to do. Just gotta get to it.

Fairly straight forward. Overflow into the main sump. I teed off the return to the 30 from the main and used a ball valve to control the flow.
Good luck! Start a build thread so we can follow.

Don't mind the random jibber jabber in the background of the video, no one knew I was recording. They dont even spawn at night anymore haha. That was mid day, like noon and they were actively laying and fertilizing

I run all 3 on my cube, haha. I've got a reefi in the middle, 2 quanta bars on the edges and a kessil 360 shining on the tenuis island and for that shimmer.

I'm setting up a growout system in my garage because I'm tired of seeing frag racks in the display.

Nothing grows as well as I'd like in those racks.
Get a few of these. Best frag rack/rocks as they sit on the bottom and blend in once coralline takes over.

I haven’t posted in forever, but I’m deep into planning my next reef build—a system just over 1,000 gallons. This project is part of a new home construction, so I’m currently working through the budget and logistics.

The tank dimensions will be 96" L x 72" W x 32" H, and my goal is to recreate a Maldivian reef (Currently have a family of Madives clowns).

The current inhabitants of my 300-gallon tank will be moved over, including a very large Magnifica anemone, which has outgrown its space (it now takes up half the 300-gallon tank!). While the anemone’s size is one reason for the upgrade, it’s certainly not the only one, if you stay in the hobby long enough and have the budget... a larger tank is only a matter time!

More updates to come as things progress!

My project is to find a new source of income to pay for my fun in this hobby. My husbands last day of work is in three days, and then we will both be retired. I don’t want the money to stop coming in!!! I still have things that I want to buy!
