37 gal Oceanic build

[boydx6]

I picked up this tank from CMcNeil. Thanks Chris. I think I am going to put some live rock, a pair of clown's and a couple BTA's in it. I will run a 250 MH. I have a AquaC Urchin skimmer but I am still looking for a sump. I have room for a 20x14 footprint for the sump. Any ideas?

Aluminum light rack.

It slides open for feeding and maintenance.

sweet.........glad to see it is going to good use.did you use the starboard rail for the light slide?

 

[boydx6]

yes

 

[CMcNeil]

i guess the rail was usefull after all.wont a 10 gallon tank fit in the stand?

 

[boydx6]

yes, but I want to use something bigger if possible. I may have to get a custom size.

 

[forddna]

15 tall. Or do you want bigger than that? glasscages has it for $45, acrylic, or $35 for glass.

20 x 10 x 17 Tall

Not sure how tall that stand is, but I found this, too...

Boydx6,

Did the 37 come reef ready?

Cheers,
Chris

 

[boydx6]

Yes, it is an older Oceanic reef ready tank.

Stephen,

Cool... I will have to remember that tank for when I get back into the hobby! (-: I really like the 37 footprint.

Cheers,
Chris

Is that the tank from CMcNeil's garage??? Nice size!

After I saw the one at Chris', I looked for it on Oceanic dot com. The smallest reef ready they had listed was 58 gallon.

Mike, it is the one from his garage. I think it was manufactured in 1996. They don't make it RR anymore.
