Hello everyone!

After a bad family situation where I was forced to sell my 20gal Long I had for 2 years and stopped my 85gal Long build that was gunna replace it.

I've decided to start on aa 5gal I found at my lfs.

I've never heard of this tank before, but maybe some here may have.

Its called the iTank.
Its a 5gal acrylic tank with LEDs and sump, YEP built-in SUMP! :D

This little one will hosts "low current" coral only.
A few crabs.
And maybe a pom-pom. :)

Will upload pics once I upload them :)

Here's the tank folks! :)http://www.flickr.com/photos/97057840@N04/8965714007/'>8965714007_b109be0d3c.jpg

 

Built-in overflow.http://www.flickr.com/photos/97057840@N04/8966896638/'>8966896638_b6e2f26963.jpg

 

The sump is like a drawer, but its a pretty big size :) you can fit carbon, chemi-pure. Etc. :)http://www.flickr.com/photos/97057840@N04/8965697789/'>8965697789_1c9127db58.jpg

Very nice!

I saw some at Petco a week ago, nice but of course would need mods for reefs.

I'm guessing the sump is under the tank? Got any pics of it?

Yeah! I saw them today when I went to buy dog food. Lol

So far so good. I will try to not make mods to keep it original hehe.

The only thing its you cant have a skimmer, but who needs one with no fish and weekly WCs! :)

A very neat idea to have the sump as a drawer. How is the plumbing done so that you can open the drawer? I there a shut off valve? Flexible tubing?

 

It looks neat. Very modern and clean. :)

Looks like they would go well with a FW setup or Macro tank.

Yep, I will replace those LEDs with a par 38 bulb or maybe a kessil. Not sure.

Thx! :) im loving this tank so far. And yes, the tank has a tube for the overflow and the return line is a flexible hose. Tho, the way it's set up for the overflow its quite weird lol. It has some kind of lid between the tank and sump that has a water "path" for the water to flow and drop down, in a spot so when you open the sump the water still drops down. It kind of neat but hard to explain lol

Thx :D

Pretty Neat!

 

Thank you Graver! :)

I really dig the look of it

 

Looks like a DIY Cree fixture and a mag 1.9 pump could take that tank Into a reef system in no time.
You sir, just read my mind! :o lol

They don't even have that on their site. They look to be an industrial type supplier.

 

Well damn, it isn't even on Petco's site. According to the internet that tank doesn't exist lol.
