Default Mikey's 25G Cube Upgrade

Hey everyone!

My three year anniversary of getting wet in this hobby is fast approaching and I'm celebrating with an upgrade! Initially I was planning to do a fully custom setup but when a rocking deal came up on CanReef, I really couldn't pass it up.

So, on Saturday I drove to Calgary, picked up the tank, stopped in at Red Coral for a return pump and new heater, and then drove home. It was an exceptionally long day on the road, but I made it back in one piece.

This is L0renzo's old tank, a 25g starfire cube with internal overflow. It's got a really cool custom stand (which is MASSIVE) that was in pieces for transport. I built it this morning before going back to Regina.

I'm working in Regina for the summer before my last year of university, so I'll be working on this thing whenever I can get back to Saskatoon on weekends. I moved my 15g down to Regina with me and I'm hoping I don't have to move the tank and stand back when I return to Saskatoon.

But I'm getting a tad ahead of myself... lots of work left to do. Here's some pics of the stand re-assembly:












And its current resting space!



More to come!
