Thank You, Daniel!

It's smoked glass. Much easier to clean than acrylic and since the depth of the tank is 4 feet deep, you can't see it anyway. Extremely pleased with the external overflow. ;)
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!

Felix not only builds amazing aquariums, but does amazing work on video productions too!
That was entertaining and insightful!

Thanks Eric!
Great video, and the tank looks like its ready to get plumbed so we can see it with the water and stuff. Great build

Thanks, Stylo328!!! That video was over the top just like the Reefsavvy custom external overflow. Felix would have it no other way! Very pleased. :)

I truly enjoyed the video. Overflow looks amazing. I'm jealous...

It was a pleasure meeting you at the swap, Gary! Glad to have you following along on my build thread too!

It was great talking to you today at the swap. I cant wait to see the finished tank. Thanks for the awesome sticks today all had polyp extension within a couple hours. Especially the Orange Crush

Awesomeness!
I NEVER watch a full video. I was intrigued and watched it all! LOL!

I've loved every minute of this build. It's probably the best most well thought out build ive seen in a long time. So Felix is done now correct? So whats next on the list? Just curious to see what future update will bring.

I really appreciate your comments and so glad to share my build with you and the R2R community. Felix still has a few small projects to finish up for me, and we plan on having him back again after the big tank is up and running with thriving corals, fish etc. Not sure what is next on my list but getting a large, whole house generator installed is near the top. Stayed tuned. :)

Took a few more individual coral pictures from the grow-out system recently. Really like the growth pattern and coloration of the Cherry Corals Passionfruit and Reef Raft Skittles colonies! ....Enjoy!




That skittles piece is awesome! Can I have a piece? Hahaha :p
