AV99's custom 600g Reef Savvy on site build-Lots of pictures

[aquavista99]

Yes indeed and thank you very much, Bronc & 29102016! I still have no ETA on filling up the tank but I am getting a lot closer. Next up will be getting the lighting rack built, curing my rock, plumbing the tank to the sump and building a few more stands for my oversized calcium reactor and sump as well. The final step will be adding a backup generator to the house.

Wow! It really looks fantastic! What's the ETA on getting it wet?

Truly outstanding! When do you think water will be going in?

So glad you found those old threads and I still have many of those magnificent corals in my new grow-out system as well. Some of my old favorites that will be added to the new tank, include the OG RR Avengers, OG RR Gold Stick, Jared's Red Matrix, OG Atlantis Simplex, my Halloween Acro and many more . I still have some hard to find old school gems from Leo Chen and Rommels as well.

Av99 I found one of your old threads, and I am waiting with bated breath to see some of those magnificent corals on display in this tank. It appears you may have some old favorites that haven't been seen in awhile.

Thanks so much, Mike&Terry! Felix documented this entire trip and has been working on some amazing time lapse videos of what it took to make this happen.When complete, I will share his videos here as well.

I have greatly enjoyed following your amazing build threads on R2R too!

Been following here and on FB... What a Masterpiece!

beautiful work. so are the interior overflows smoked glass? so one can see the water somewhat enter interior overflow and through holes and into the external from the inside of the tank? or does the exterior overflow's rear vinyl and the smoked glass expect to cover this visual? since there isn't black glass why not use black acrylic on the interior overflow to avoid any transparency of the flow?

thanks for sharing and all the photos - this build will be awesome for certain!
