mpsti05 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 After about 6yrs of all in ones I decided I finally wanted a tank with a sump for some proper equipment. So for my 30th bday back in feb I talked with Felix at Reef Savvy and ordered my tank. Loved the dimensions of my custom picO so I went with 30x20x16 3 sided low iron, Ghostoverflow, and there phantom bottom. Shortly after talked with Rick at snergy reef and custom designed a killer sump aswell. Everything arrived in May but we were on the hunt for a new house. Finally bought the house a week ago and can now set up the new tank. Tank: 30x20x16 Reef Savvy w/ 3sided low iron 1/2", 16"ghostoverflow, phantom bottom. Return pump: Reef Octopus diablo 5500 Power heads: 2 Vortech mp10wes w/Ecotech BBU Protein skimmer: Bubble magus curve 5 Media: BRS Carbon/gfo Reactors: 2 TLF 150's with cobalt mj1200 Ato: Tunze 3155 w/ 7gal reservoir Heater: Ehiem Jagėr 150w Lighting: Nanobox wide Quad& nano box fuge lite Doser: Neptune Dos Controller: Apex lite w/ wxm and ALD w/probes That's it for now I'll edit this more later Also a pic of the synergy sump Link to comment

jolee0722 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Are you sure the mp10s will fit on that tank? I think ecotech marine says on their website that the max for them is 3/8". Link to comment

What's the ato going to be? Magnus change it to magus? Dude there are so many questions, so little time, hurry up and get it running. Lol sold the one from macna. Ordered this one for my 30th bday back in feb. Been in storage while we were purchasing our house. The ato is a tunze 3155 with a ato container made by advanced acrylic, same one I'm currently using on the custom pico, that tank will probably get taken down weds. When I transfer the fish to the new tank which there's only 3. My Pico is currently at the inlaws house and they have been feeding my fish. Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Tank has been running well since Monday night. Cpl drips started to form on the return bulkheads yesterday but just waiting to see if I should tighten the bulk head a tad more or if it'll seal itself. Gotta turn on the skimmer still and set up the reactors. And put the mp10's in. Link to comment
