Nice loving it. there is something to be said about finding a reefing style that works for you. I do like keeping it simple as long as the results are there. I am getting back in with a 40B build I thought about going sumpless but I do travel a lot so decided on to go with one, for ATO res. hind the heater etc. but I think I am gonna go skimmer less...and do a up flow ATS.
for years I have been wanting to try one.
anyway NICE tank bro.

What brand 40b are you using. I just bought a tetra from petco $/g and it was absolute s*** construction and had to return it. The bottom bowed without water and glass was significantly misaligned. Looked at 2 replacements at the store with similar problems

Haha I mean two of my local lfs have their stores filled with them and have never had any issues. The one I got had significant bowing n when I finally found one that didn't, it had a crack. i only looked at about 5 (all at petco) but all had some bowing (left and right edges of the tank in the air) So rather than take the chance or keep searching I'm ordering an aqueon 50b from my lfs. Figured I'd go with a 50 instead of 40 since I'm ordering one neway.

I really like the second one because it looks minimal, but honestly to be more efficiently and let some rock help u a little and have more places to place corals, I would say u better if with 1
