Talking Studsrsx 180 Gallon Build

Well, been lurking around here for a while but dont post to often. I enjoy checking out everyones builds so when I decided to start a new tank I thought I should do a build thread. So here goes...

Starting off with a tank from the boys at Concept. Tank is a 180 Gallon 6x2x2. Pics here of the tank just after it got finished at the shop before they delivered.

This is the biggest and first tank that I have had with a proper sump so I am definately excited to say the least.

Wow great looking Tank, do you have pics of the sump or is that what is on the back of it? Sorry I'm new to this if that was a dumb question.
Also what is this photo hosting account stuff that everyone is talking about ? Is it Like Flickr ?

Thanks for the help

Mike

Picks of the sump should be up shortly. The piece on the back of the tank is the external overflow box which connects to the sump. Photo hosting account is just as you described to share photos from a another site such as photobucket so that canreef isn't hosting.
