Tank Build

Well I have been building a stand and canopy for my 40 gallon breeder tank and i didnt take any build pictures.  So I will just put up the pictures of it being water tested in my garage.
This is my current 30 gallon tank that the new on will be replacing:

And here is the new tank and sump, I still have to build the doors for the canopy and stand:



I will probably be moving this tank inside this week hopefully!  I will post pics on the move.

40 breeders are awesome for smaller tanks.... god, i love mine...

your stand is lookin good. make some freakin doors and get er in the house!

 

what kinda overflow are you using?

 

I bought the tank predrilled in the top 2 corners.  1 hole is 1" which is the drain.  I just have a pvc strainer on it.  The return is 3/4" and I had to turn down the mag 5 pump to get the water level to be stable.

 

got a picture of it?

 

I mounted the bulkhead "backwards so the threads are inside... this way I can take the piping off the tank if I need to.
I just took this picture:

 

Look forward to seeing it up after the move!  We need pictures!

 

Well here is the tank as it is setup now:

And here is my 175W metal halide with 2 65W PC Actinic:

And this is some type of coral that I cant identify, I found him in the move, some type of mushroom?:

 

Looking good! Things will color up more and more with the increased light-looks like your palys will turn greener etc as will that shroom you found. I might move your leather a bit further away from the shroom, as they will start to poison each other as they bid for a spot on your reef /site/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif
