This is my third tank in 4 years of reefing. The other two (20h and 60g cube) were taken down due to an upgrade and unexpected damage to the stand. Now that I have ordered my new tank and have the stand built I figured I would document the build and beginnings of my newest tank.
Custom 24x24x16 rimless tank drilled three times (2 1'' drains for herbie style and a 3/4'' return) built by LeeMar
DIY stand (I will never use a POS MDF stand again!)
10g no frills AGA sump
x1 Ecotech Radion LED unit
x2 Ecotech mp10wes
SRO INTO 1000 skimmer
Mag 7 return with Phosban 150 tee'd into return for carbon/GFO
JNS biopellet reactor (cool cyclone pellet motion)
x2 BRS 1.1ml/m dosers for use with Bionic two part
LR from marcorocks
Tropic Eden reef sand (50/50 split between reeflakes and miniflakes)- gotta have nice sand for my leopard wrasses
I might have forgot some stuff. If I remember something ill post it back up. This tank will have a focus on SPS and zoos.
Pics of the DIY stand a buddy of mine is helping me build. Dimensions are 25x25x36. Some might say it's overkill, but I am happy knowing that water nor the weight of the tank will effect the integrity of the stand. Next step is to get some plywood, skin it, stain it, and then seal it.
