After six months of planning and purchasing, and four weeks of having my tank set up, I figured it was time to document with a build thread and get some feedback. I began purchasing various items off of Craig's List and had a 55 gallon Uniquarium all plumbed, filled with water to checked for leaks, etc. when my husband brought home a 120 gallon setup that was clearly much nicer than what I had just set up.
So the tear down began, before I even got started.
This is what he brought home.
It came complete with a 30 gallon sump that needed some cleaning, a EuroReef Protein Skimmer (I'm not sure what model), and a Phosban Reactor.
I already had lights, heaters, and this 35 gallon aquarium that I was planning on using for a refugium. It was currently holding my catfish!
Needless to say, this stuff was better than what I was originally planning, but now we had to work twice as hard to put it all together.
