Would be nicer with some CoralCare Gen 2s over it! *wink wink* :lol2:

These will be available about the second week of july. Are you looking for the White version or black versions? They are also UL listed.

Nice! I love build threads... I've got my CD tank on order and will start a thread once I have some pictures to show for it.
Do you know when they are supposed to deliver the tank?
Not sure yet. I'm sure it'll be some time since they're also building my stand.
Woohoo! Either color works. They'll be under a canopy

sweet setup! can't wait to see it finished.
Panta Rhei is a great pump. I run 2 in my tank along with their honeycomb guard. even my tiniest fish can peck food around the guard without getting sucked into the pump. You can run the self cleaning mode, so really no maintenance. every 6 months I run it for 15 minutes in vinegar water.
I run 1 at 50% and 1 at 40%-5% wave.
chose it over MP because I didn't want to risk MP sliding off the tank. Their foam guards suck. But lately some 3D printed guards seem to work great.

Thanks!
Sweet! Good to hear from a user of panta rheis.
Yeah the 3d printed MP guards are actually pretty good. I hate the foam guards.

Thanks guys! I'm definitely buzzing with excitement.
10 months in the works and it's finally here!
I'm super excited to start piecing together the build and hopefully get it running soon!
Still need to get a sump, ato, and plumbing supplies before I water test it. I'll test it with tap water for about a week before I fill it with rocks and saltwater.

Your tank looks amazing. Congrats, Try to get a sump as wide as you can.
