Default Riceboy's new 82.7 one piece eurobrace starfire build

Well its time for a new build and upgrade you've read it, its going to be a 1 piece starfire eurobrace tank and fully polished with three sides starfire and back of the tank will be black, and black silconed. After talking to most shops and other tank builders in town I have decided to go with CONCEPT AQUARIUMS since he gave me a smoking deal on the tank that no one even came close too . After talking to CONCEPT AQUARIUMS and telling him what i wanted this is the idea he had come up with:







CONCEPT AQUARIUMS had integrated a wavebox design onto either sides of the overflow and all i need to do is place my vortechs in there and there should be no powerheads visible in my tank ( which was the main thing i emphasized while talking to him). But instead of having a cube tank i had caved into getting this tank, which would be great for my yellow tang and blue tang to swim in . there will be 2 drain holes in the overflow and the middle hole will be used as an emergency drain if either one of the holes were to ever get clogged. The return on the tank will be on either sides of the tank as you can see in the pics.

CONCEPT AQUARIUMS had also designed a baller sump for me as well. When i brought him my design he knew it wasn't going to work so had compiled this up and i must say its a very well thought out design.

heres CONCEPT'S sump design:





I am very excited to get my tank and will be in a process of building a bonsai rock sculpture once i get my new tank set up.
