At this point, I have everything to set it up, I'm just waiting on some extra fittings for the chiller. Supposedly, Aquamedic's warehouse burnt down, so I have to wait for them to re-stock the fittings, and then for them to ship it to a supplier, and then to me...
 
that is hella-sweet. i cant wait to see it all set up.

and for the record, aquamedic's warehouse really did burn down :/
 
Hey thanks aural!

That sucks about their warehouse. Premium Aquatics told me that they should have the parts by the end of the month, so I guess the wait shouldn't be too long.

Hey Semi

I would like more info on your tank. Looks good.

Ok, I bought the tank from Scott @ AquaticSystemsDesign, and I wanted to incorporate the sump that I already had. So, I ended up going with the external overflow, and a closed loop. I got a really great deal on a Titan chiller, so I just decided to add that to the tank as well. The hole on the top left is the sump return, the hole in the lower middle is the Closed Loop intake, and the hole right above that is the CL return. I have some loc-line on the returns right now, so I will be able to control the flow very easily.
In the sump, I will have some chaeto, and i also bought the fission nano-skimmer. The tank also sits on a 3" tall base.

As for my plans for the tank, I will have a short sand bed, and it will be primarily a mixed reef. Mostly zoas, rics, and a few sps like montis.

Hey, love the tank! can't wait to see this one unfold.

Thanks! A guy at nano-reef started making some awesome pendants, and I asked him about a custom one. After talking for a while, we decided on a small pendant with a 70w halide + dual actinics. The pendant that he made me is just incredible, really professional looking. He also built a ballast box which houses the PC and halide ballasts. A built in thermoflow fan is installed also. I don't have the pendant set up yet because I need to find a way to hang it without putting holes in the ceiling.

Awesome looking cube!! I so want one! I love everything about it, can't wait to see pics with stuff in it now. Good job!!!

This is going to be awsome! :D

Just curiuous....did you get ideas from the project that was a 6 gallon hex? The person who did that used a 1200 for there retun too. Just an inquiry. :D
Great job so far!

It looks sweet so far I'm sure it will be incredible when you get it stocked! Any info about the guy that made that hood would be nice, public or PM, thanks :)
 
Thanks Barry!

Alien, that looks like a sweet hex tank. I like how he concealed everything like the CL intake and the return. Very innovative.

Thanks AIMFish! I'm going to shoot you a pm. :)
