Rev's 400+ Gallon Basement Inwall

[revhtree]

The wire is for the lighting! I won a 48" ATI T5 fixture at RAP last year in the raffle! HA!

The tank was ordered off of Amazon but the seller sells all size of tanks. This is the tank that I ordered but in came in as the wrong one. The owner was more than willing to send me a new tank and make it right but I decided to drill this one myself and use it. He refunded me back some money as well. This tank cost me $320 after the refund. He also uses black silicone. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MRRITAG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was thinking about going with acrylic but it was going to be a couple hundred more plus I like being able to clean glass easier once I let the frag tank cleaning go undone!

This ATB 1050 is pulling some gunk! Stinking up the whole tank room! Ha! I have a Reef Octopus 300int on order so I'm using the ATB from the old tank until then. It's really doing a great job!!

Also finally finished the plumbing except for the lines from the manifold to the reactors. Excuse all the mess and wires but I just finished tonight so I can finally start cleaning and managing wires! Got the frag tank all plumbed in! Oh and before this photo I just cleaned the skimmer! See above! Lol!

That looks awesome. You've done a great job with the build.

 

[prsnlty]

You sure are making a lot of people jealous, especially me! I love all that you have done! Great job!

 

[TonapahNorth]

I still love reading this thread. Makes me laugh ..... and stare in amazement. Keep it going.

 

[Pola0502ds]

Need to get some full tank room shots!

 

[dragon99]

Now we are cooking with saltwater! Looking good.

 

[Pola0502ds]

I can't believe the skimmer is pulling that much stuff out without a big bio-load.

Please cover up all those outlets with some outdoor covers; you're making me nervous with the proximity there.

Looks awesome! Glad you are happy with it!

I'm guessing the screen won't hold up under metal halides??

It would be good for several years before the UV/heat makes it brittle.

Looking good! Still amazed at all the plumbing that went into this build!

 

[Justin Thain]

Still moving along in the tank room. Frag tank install.

Can you tell me where you purchase the frag tank?

 

[Dxpert]

Wow, I just had a read through some of the thread. What an amazing build! Love the apex board and the plumbing. Can't wait to see some fish in the tank. Well done!

 

[l8_apex_it]

Oh no, I'm caught up.

Nice build! Can't wait to see the ongoing progress.

 

[VelasCorals]

Every time I look at this tread I'm still amazed by the plumbing job - so perfect!

I also can't believe how much poo that skimmer is pulling already.

 

[ws6kid]

Yea the plumbing in this thread makes most of us jealous

I know right?! I think it's from the rock! It was shipped wet where it had been "live."
