Tiff's 99 problem tank build

[darkreef]

99 gallon tank.

Concepts custom built tank.

48X24x20 display with a partial coast to coast overflow 2 return holes 2 drains.

44x24x16 sump , 2x 4" filter socks , skimmer and reactor department , refu .ato

48x27x30 custom built aluminum stand by me

Idea for this tank is mostly LPS large sand bed garden and zoa filled rocks with few different kinds of bird nest at the top

[darkreef]

Still have lots to do , but the sides and doors on the stand and plumb the tank . Maybe make a canopy

Problem #1 find a truck to pick up my tanks
Solution - pay a friend with a van a box of beer !



Problem #2 sump is same with as display , no go for wood
Solution - build your own stand in the shop



Problem #3 stand be to big for my car to bring it home and to big and heavy
Solution - build a stand I can bolt together at home and fits in my trunk with aluminum



Problem #4 sell fresh water take and make room in my small apartment
Solution - kijiji

Well if you seen my other post I lost my tank in a bad accident and slowly putting it back together .
Sadly I lost my cowfish in the disaster but I thank everyone who helped me out and did there best !

Last week I added my clean up crew .
8 snails and 2 different coloured tuxedo urchins .

Today I purchased two baby Hawaiian snowflake eels<3

Meet George and Sally


There not currently in the tank because I have to add sand this week and start making caves <3 very excited

I got 80lbs of sand on the way thanks to concepts ordering me some.
Pick up tomorrow hopefully , then give a day or two to settle and picking up my two baby snowflakes !! And my other fish from concepts and frags

Way to excited to have my tank running again ..
Going to miss my cow so on the hunt for a baby cowfish

I added a long tenticle purple anemone today
( kinda early but if I keep things well he should do fine )

My urchins are motoring around I love them !
