DeBo's 75 Gallon build

[cdeboard]

Hey everyone, glad I found this local forum. Hope to get to know some of you, trade frags, etc. I have been looking for more people locally for a few months now.

I have a 37 gallon reef with some softies, etc currently.

Just got a ridiculous deal on a 75 gallon yesterday. My LFS has numerous 75 gallons. Drilled, corner overflows, all plumbing from the tank up. I even got a free heater and a blue tuxedo urchin all for 75$ including tax. He had just bought another store in another part of Kentucky and is consolidating everything.

They have about 4 like mine left. They have about 8 or so 75's that have the partition in the middle. If you want more info pm me or give me a ring (606) 483-1074 and I will let you know where the LFS here is and tell them I sent you (not sure if I can post that info on here).

If you want to meet up and look at tanks, trade frags, etc. Give me a ring as well. Sooo glad to meet you guys/gals!

Anyway... here are some pics.

This is an older pic of my current setup:

All clean with my little monster in it:

Nice score! That is a fantastic deal for someone looking to upgrade or start a new tank. Do you already have your other equipment such as light or just starting to put this together?

Jason I imagine he's talking about Reefs and Reptiles in Grayson. They bought out SeaQuariums last year and moved the store out there. We met the owners wife last year while they were moving and she was really nice. Haven't made the trip to their new store but plan to soon.

I am just starting to put this together. Yes that is who I am talking about. Jared is a cool guy. He also bought out another store recently. Thats where some of these tanks came from.

Actually.. this tank is for sale now! I was looking for a sump for this on a local forum.. and found a 125G that is actually going to cost me less to setup... so... if anyone wants a good deal on this tank... shoot me a call (606) 483-1074...
