Daemonfly Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Pretty open & clean look to it. With all that sand space, I'd be tempted to put in a scooter dragonet. Link to comment
musicawal Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Nice and clean. Can you give some specs and possibly some closer coral shots? Link to comment
shag26272 Posted May 8, 2007 Author Share Posted May 8, 2007 sorry I havent replied, I do not get my email notifications, its an AGA 40 breeder, I drilled the bottom corner for the acrylic overflow, and the back of a 3/4 return, I use a 14 gallon acrylic sump that I constructed, Euro-reef RS80 skimmer and 600 GPH return pump, I have a koralia #3 and i have a koralia #1 on order to hit a dead spot on the right back side of the tank. the lighting is a 400 watt MH, the previous pics were a hamilton 14k which I just switched out to a 20k bulb as seen in my new pics, the reflector is a sunlight supply Lumen max 2 and its supported by a post I made of 1.25 inch PVC, ill try to get some coral shots tomorrow, I have frags coming from reefhotspot, also I built the stand myself, it was my first one, cost about 50 bucks total few more Link to comment
ssirishpride Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 a silly question here but does the drain go through a hole in the stand to get to the sump? Link to comment
shag26272 Posted May 13, 2007 Author Share Posted May 13, 2007 yes, I cut out the back corner of the plywood that the tank sits on Link to comment
agileTuan Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 I just posted in your other tread about posting some plumbing pics but I see that you have some in this tread. I think I have the same tank as you. I was going to do a internal overflow and durso but wasnt sure if the bottom glass was tempered or not. But after see these pics I guess the bottom glass isnt tempered then? What did you use to make your overflow box? Link to comment
shag26272 Posted July 20, 2007 Author Share Posted July 20, 2007 its 2 black pieces of acrylic with 2 squares wide of black eggcrate glued to the top Link to comment
agileTuan Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 thanks. I went to home depot and lowes today to look for diamond drill hole saw but could not find any. Think I might have to order it online. Your tank setup is simple and the rockscaping looks really nice. I'm using your tank and other members 40b on here as a guide to help me and my dad setup our tank. Link to comment
