My rimless updated, getting ready for water.

Well I guess its time for me to add to this thread, A little background. I bought this tank about three months ago with a broken back pane of glasss. I replaced the back pane and it came out great. Currently I'm apartment hunting so it wont be set up for some time but heres the tank right now. It is a 48x24x20 100Gallon custom tank with starphire front and side panels. The stand was custom made by me and I am gathering things for the tank weekly. Eventually I will transfer the contents of my 75 gallon to this tank once I move.

Here is my 90g Miracles rimless tank with external coast to coast overflow. I built the stand, sump and refugium and set it all up about a month ago. Eventually I hope to have a thriving SPS tank.







EDIT:
I redid the drains right before I put water in it.
 
nitr8, that's a clean looking set up. I love the plumbing work and arrangement of the equipment. How do you like that sqwd?

Thank you. I had to improvise with the plumbing because the tank manufacturer and I didn't exactly get on the same page with the hole placement. :/ It was supposed to be hard plumbing the whole way. No big deal. Still turned out okay.
Finding room and placing all the equipment in the stand was a nightmare. I had a pretty good idea of where I wanted everything before I built the stand so pretty much started with my skimmer and built the stand around that while trying to keep each piece of equipment in mind as I went. I custom built the sump and refugium specifically for this stand to maximize space and water volume. Google sketch up helped a lot.
To tell you the truth, I can't really give an honest opinion on the SCWD. I have two MP40s on at 85% and a Eheim1262 return. The return flow plays a very small roll in my 77x turnover rate.
Thanks for looking and the compliment.
 
Hey, I have a 75 gallon rimless Deep Blue that just shattered on me while drilling. It was not supposed to be tempered on the back side but it surely was (pictures in the new to this hobby section).

Any way, I think I will be forced to order a new tank so I want to get a better brand this time. What company would you recommend for a rimless 75 gallon? Starphire on 3 sides and of course NOT tempered on the back side.
