Hi guys,

I am planning a new 107 gallon tank build at the moment.
The tank will be custom made and I am about to order it.
I would love your input before I send the order for the tank..
Is there anything i should add inn to the design? Anything that shouldn't be like it is in the design.

Everything is in millimeters since I live in Europe and we don't use inches and feet..
The tank will be running a Neptune Apex controller and a deltec SC 1455 skimmer with Avast skimmer neck cleaner"¦
It will have 2 MP40QD for circulation and an Vectra M1 return pump.
It will have a Smart ATO for top off and grotech 3 dosing pump for balling +
I am wondering if 2 ecotech Radion xr30w Pro will be enough light for the tank or if I will need to have 3 of them"¦
I am a gear freak so please come with suggestions and recommendations

1) any reason for the huge tower on the right side other than the overflow box??

2) I really love this tank, everything looks great and is well planned out, but make sure do a build thread!

3) I would reccomend 3 radions for the tank, not for the par but the spread. with 2 you will likely run into shading and the corners wouldn't be lit well.

good luck with everything and ill try to follow the build progress!
 
The reason for the tower is that the tank will sit in the space where i have the 210L tank to day"¦
The tower is the same size as the cabinets that`s there already and the same thickness..
And I like the extra space in the sump area :) And it will dampen some noise from the tank as well..

Yeah I guess I will need 3 radions for my tank... I am wonder if I am going to go for some t5 as well on the tank...
The new BRSTV movies made me consider it a bit... :)


I will try to keep you guys posted but there will be a 2 month waiting period before I get the new tank from it is ordered..
