The grey stuff is seriously WEAPON material. It's at least twice as thick-walled as the sch40 white pvc. My plumbing alone is pretty heavy. I lose flow, it cost more and had to be shipped but it looks great haha. I'll bet I could have a reef by now if I wasn't so fussy!

couldn't someone just buy CPVC from anywhere? It's pvc for electrical conduits. It's the same as pvc (as far as I know) and it's grey.

Schedule-80 pipe is also grey. It's rated for much higher pressures than we really need but you can't argue against that it looks cooooooool.

Ok the tank looks 10x cooler under light AND water. Do I win a biscuit?
This is freshwater of course lol. Leak-free so far! Going to run it all day and hope for the best. I'm leaving the house for most of the day too which seems pretty smart to me. And yeah the plumbing was from BRS. Coolest thing is with sunlight in my livingroom the auto whitebalance has capture the look perfectly! Tho your mileage may vary since every monitor is diff.

This is one of the most inspiring tanks I have ever seen. The sump and everything is just so clean and perfect, I bet you are almost hesitant to put fish in it. Can I ask how wide your euro bracing strips are and do they sit on top of the edge pieces or is that just how it looks.

Saaaaweet!
I wouldn't put fish in it. Or saltwater. This set up is just way too clean and nice looking to ruin with livestock. You will just get algae and crap ruining the look. Fish are too messy. Keep it modern and sleek just how it is now. I think the rockwork is absolutely perfect!!!
