Hi everyone, just want blend in with the forum so I would like to introduce my first salt water setup ever. I use to keep fresh water and I push myself to the max with 1200 gallon plywood tank before I gave up the hobby due to my favorite fish die. Now I am back with fish keeping but want something different so I go with the reef. This 180G is my hospital tank for my fresh water and lucky I still keep it so mind as well use it. Also thanks to Anthony (aka Seahorse fatastic ) for helping me out and answer to all my question regarding the salt water setup and boy it sure is expensive
.
So here go, 180g acrylic with a build in cabinetry from the front entrance.
Inside stand I paint it white and have a layer of epoxy on it so in case water leak wont damage the stand as it is a build in unit and I have a 2x4 all across the bottom where sump fit so no water will leak out of the stand.
skimmer is Euro reef which come with the other setup that I bought but no motor so I go through and custom it like deltec skimmer with 2 pumps.
that's it for now more pics will follow.
