I am going to try this again and post pics here (since some take a job to their head and cant take a joke)
I recently moved from Beaumont Tx to Houston and took down my 120 Gallon in wall setup that I had for the past 5-6 years. I am replacing it with a 100 gallon 36â€Âx36â€Âx18†square rimless AGE tank. . I had the tank drilled for a closed loop system powered by a Dart pump going through a oceans motions 4 way.... I built the stand with 2x4’s and finished it out with red oak side panels and red oak stain with polyurethane. The stand is 30†tall which makes the tank easily viewed from above. The stand has 3 large doors that are attached by magnets for easy access from all 3 viewable sides. The lighting is going to be 1 DE lumen Arc reflector with a 250 watt bulb. If I am not happy with the light I will change it out with a 400 watt light and ballast. Other equipment will be (equipment removed from previous tank) a Octopus Controller, ASM G4 skimmer (may trade for a smaller skimmer if someone is interested), Calcium reactor, mag 9.5 return pump, closed loop mentioned above, Probably 2 Tunze Nano’s or vortech’s (I have to sell my 3 regular streams first) and Aquatic Habitats just got my 30†PM sump in today so I will be installed next weekend. All plumbing will be with grey PVC. (most is grey schedule 40 with the exception of the hard piping which is sch 80)
