I want to do them because my current tank is 79x36x26 full of corals and no frags tank, after 2 years of operation luckily the corals are growing fast from the frags, with the largest colony diameter being 18", along with some issues with the old sump system so I want to do the whole thing with the technical cabinet and frag tank. And I want to move the tank from the 1st floor to the 2nd floor. The plan is to move all the filtration media and aquascape up, along with some new small aquascape blocks to give more space for the corals. Maybe call it a change to a bigger house for the fish and corals. Haha

The new tank will be using 19mm super clear glass with braces around but no braces in the middle of the tank, the sump was expanded from 63x24x16 to 79x32x18 because I realized I needed a really larger sump. And I chose to use a UPVC settling tank designed by a company specializing in manufacturing UPVC products in Vietnam, the glass and my stand will be shipped to my house and assembled on site. I will update the pictures gradually. Hope to receive comments and shares from you. Below I will send some pictures of my tank from 15 months ago, 1 year ago and now. Along with the design of the sump and my stand . Thank you for following.

Thank you for your interest. I will update the progress of the implementation of the items and the system migration process.

- Hello everyone. I want to update the new situation of the tank. Today they brought my stage, with the electrical cabinet, the tank stage frags. Next the glass company also brought the glass, and a company that designs automatic lifting systems for lights also brought it to install. The process of transporting the pieces was quite difficult because they were brought to the 2nd floor and the size was large. I hoped everything would be okay, and luckily so far there have been no problems. They have finished gluing the glass. Have to wait 4 days, they will glue the overflow box. After 2 days I will start running the water filter for 10 days to remove unwanted things... There is still a way to go before transferring the creatures from the old tank to the new one. Thank you for taking the time to follow.

My idol. So where do you plan to place your sump? Under the tank or in a sump room?

Welcome and that’s a cool setup!

Am I seeing this right? You’ll put all that weight on the second floor? Assume you’ve already consulted with a structural engineer? If so — cool! I would be very concerned but that’s just me.
