92 corner unit...with DIY Walls...

[epstein]

Here is an update on my new tank.......

Ya may remember that I was building walls for my tank .....

well after much drama and a couple of good errors.....Its finally up and running.....

and under actinics

Pics are terrible in my opinion......Please excuse micro bubbles and debris.......I am still in the process of adjusting rock work .......And the hydros are coming out as soon as I change pumps the mag 12 just isnt cutting it ....so I gotta plumb my quiet one.....

Id like to thank Nicky from Go Fish......Eric "Mad tanks" for the custom killer sump......(thats right he built me an L shaped sump/refuge).....and of course Kevin "LRLS".....for answering every panicked call and spending hours helpin me...... and of course you guys for answering my posts

Now I just gotta slowly add fish and corals and cant wait for the walls to become seasoned.....

How did you affix the walls to the side of the tank and keep them from toppling over?

 

[epstein]

The korelias are temporary .....Until I switch return pumps.....then they wont be needed.....Ill give you specific numbers after I switch out.......

Affixing the walls well I measured and made the wall to the specific size of the sides of the tank ... so that they fit under the brace without sand also you will see 2 very large rocks used at the bottom of each wall these are anchors and I have epoxied regular live rock to em anchoring em in place......
