Hey guys I just found this group on Facebook and thought I would come over here to show you the new tank build that I started. New to the hobby but I figured go big for my first tank and hope that I don't mess things up.

Very Cool. Looks Great!
Thanks, I got 3 redsea 60's , 4 T-5's going on the tank, redsea 500 protein skimmer, redsea filter roller, redsea gerye, 2 mp40's , apex pro and the trident system will also have an L1 return pump and a M1 pump for a close loop

That sure is going BIG!
 
Now I'm looking for a calcium reactor to finish things off but every time I find one for sale I'm too late

From Advanced Acrylics: For the club code. Its best if they text me directly. I will offer up to 10% off any item (s) under a total purchase of $1000 And 15% off purchases over $1000

Or 20% off if they want to piggy back their shipment with yours next week. For this discount, they need to order today

Welcome John and good luck to you. If you need any tips we have a great group of experienced reefers here. Hit me up
When you are ready for some tester frags.
 
Here is an update to my tank build I have pre-wired some of the electrical equipment so when the tank gets here. I had a video to upload but I don't see how to upload the video so I grabbed some screen shots from the video. Still have a few more things to get wired and have to go back and make labels for the wires so I can remember what is what.VideoCapture_20231024-160235.jpg

Got my system running from the transfer from the old tank. Have lost a couple of things but hope things will get better.
