Beautiful tank. I think I was trying to get this same one from a guy in Orlando but you beat me to it lol.. What kind of lights are you planning on going with ?
 
So i have decided to come out from hiding under the tank stand. All plumbing is done and glued, successful pressure tests with no leaks. Skimmer in inline and everything is running super smooth, a little loud at the moment but that will require some fine tuning. need to redirect a little bit of this water back into the sump as this pump pushes some serious liquid.


1sttttttttttttttttttttttttt

Looks good.....lets see some more pics...

We want more!

Yea, starting off with them for the moment. Got too busy to ever list them for sale. between them and the tank i had too much money just sitting around. consolidating all the smaller tanks into one or two

Im jealous, I want me a Reef Saavy tank!!

they are just so much nicer than even some of my other rimless tanks. believe the hype!

I think i am that guy in Orlando. Im going to run 10-12 t5's over it untill my LEDs arrive.
 
So after first running into some issues after breaking the only slip fitting i had left for my Cepex valve, this lead to a fun three hours digging through my spare bucked of plumbing. Reminds me of a kid digging through legos and you can never find that piece your looking for. A few hours at home depot later and we have water moving




 
Next it was time for some electrical and then working the skimmer around to find its place and some more plumbing. If i never have to plumb again it will be too soon.

I'll be following along. Just picked up an identical tank from a friend, (except for the drain/overflow setup I believe, which I am changing out to another drain system).
