With the help of some good friends I have returned to the hobby after a 7 year or so absence.
My system is:
Tank - 60" x 36" x 26" made from 3/4" acrylic tank with black back and 6" Eurobrace made by Advanced Acrylic
Stand - 60" x 36" x 36" aluminum extrusion held together with counterbore fasteners
Sump - 36" x 24" x 16" acrylic with black dividers made by Advanced Acrylic
ATO reservoir - 12" x 20" x 20" acrylic made by Advanced Acrylic
Dosing container - 3 compartment, black with a clear front made by Advanced Acrylic
Equipment consists of:
Apex Brain
4 Apex EB8s, one mounted under the stand and three in "the Master Control Room" AKA my office.
Apex VDM controlling my Tunze pumps
Apex WXM controlling my Radions
Apex PM2 monitoring Conductivity
Reef Octopus Regal 300INT Skimmer
8 Radion XR30 Pro Gen3
Vectra L1 plumbed as return. I have programed it via EcoTech's point of sale ReefLink and EcoSmartLive since I can't control it with the Apex.
1 Tunze 6000 aimed up
2 Tunze 6200s aimed back to front
Pax Bellum ARID C-24
Pentair - Aquatics Ecosystem Smart UV 40.
Ozotech Ozonizer
Home grown ATO float assembly connected to a custom 'breakout' box so the Apex controls the ATO pump
2 BRS dosing pumps controlled by Apex dosing BTS 2-part CA/Alk supplement
3 fans to cool the tank. Two fun under the stand aimed into the sump and 1 on stop of the tank
FTS - Doors and panels on stand are inset into the aluminum. Lights are mounted using the Ecotech RMS hanging kit.
Doors Open - Stand has two hinged doors and 4 panels, all HDPE. The panels are held in place by magnets.

Behind the Stand - The Rat's Nest. Wires, etc. go through two portholes to my office.
