hey guys so i compiled a short walk around of the tank on my buddys digital camera....go easy on me theres still alot of work to do especially with the sump and under the stand and i still have some sand and rock from my established tanks to go in there yet. apex will be here in a few days then i get to see what it can do and i should have the zeo reactor by the end of the month

i still have to paint the stand and i have to take the trim off to paint it then ill put it all on and finish it nicely.dont mind the koralias hanging there in there to help the cloud settle and clear the tank up and once i get the apex hooked up all the wires in the stand will be ran through the studs and out of the way cheers

It's a thing of beauty, Denny!
Great job envisioning it to begin with! It is a stunning concept, and now an amazing reality! The sump is also very nice. Love how both the top and bottom looks. Cannot wait to see the lights in. Everything is so nice and clean. The video definately helped.

Thanks I hate clutter so untill I drill some strategically placed holes in the stand it was the best way to keep them out of my way and dry.

In the two containers and jar are my refuge, in two containers are two types of sand and in the jar is liverock rubble Im gonna add a fairly large piece of liverock and then hopefully I can keep my refuge clean and doing what it's supposed to do....be a safe haven for life. I'm gonna try some macro algae but with the zeo I'm not sure if you can???

The fuge has one return from where my tanks drains dump out it is controlled by a ball valve to tune the flow throughout. Pod production is my ultimate goal and mandarins next year
