Grizz's 8' shallow sea

[doobiej]

Grizz,

just came across your thread, I like your tank, I just got my 8 foot ( 96Lx22Wx24H ) glass tank up and running a couple weeks ago. took 6 of us to carry it into the house. I am curious to see what you do with yours.
not too many 8 footers around.

so i'd just like to point out that knowing grizz's track recored with tanks i would love to be the first one on the buyers list when and if this tank ever goes up for sale... amazing job so far!

Hey I resemble that comment This tank is a keeper the wife will not let me go bigger. But there might be a another tank build at some point in time for my office.

So nothing really to update, had to stall for a short time because of shortage of cash, really need to sell my other tanks that are posted.

Plus I have to get my 65 hex set-up and plumbed with the 20 gal sump and CPR overflow in order to get my 75 corner empty.

Will update as soon as possible once I get more done.

Little update got the hole's drilled in the bottom of the tank for the closed loop. Now I can go get the bulkheads and PVC fitting's required.

Water catch tray for under pump's:


Start of the electrical panel, it will change a bit now that I found my timer's:



And here is my closed loop, well fitting's for the closed loop:

Any thoughts on a stocking list?

They are at the back of the tank and will be hidden behind the LR. the only whey they will be visible is if you look down from the top of the tank.
