Reef's 75G Upgrade!

Reef This · 08/10/2007, 07:51 PM

Well, here it is.

Not many pictures, as we just finished remodeling our house and I just didn't take that many during the move from my 55 to this 75. I only had a matter of a couple days to figure everything out after everything got here, and get it all together and going, and moved.

So, here is the AGA 75G tank with the sump. (The sump was built by Richard at www.customsumps.com - the work is outstanding. Although, I did ask him to make the sump 32 or 34 inches instead of 40. Perhaps he forgot? I'm not really sure, but, it actually worked out better this way.)

Here is a picture of just some of the equipment that arrived the day the sump showed up.

3x100W Stealth heaters
EuroReef RS100 (I should have gotten bigger, but bigger would have been very bad, 20" height is perfect.)
Mag 5
Tunze ATO

Stuff not in the picture:

Eheim 1260
Tunze 6060
Tunzo Nanosteam 6045
Maristar 2x250DE w/ 2x54 T5's

Here is the plumbing about halfway done.

More pics!

Here is the plumbing finished, just without the return.

Here is the sump in operation the 3rd day it was set up. Along with the ATO in action. (It looks like a lot of wires are in there, but there really isn't. Just where the power strips are located, and they are going to be moved to a different location this weekend.)

That's it!

Not much, but I had to post it!

Things still to come:

Jalli refuge light, the Tunze kalk dispenser that goes with the ATO i have, and replacing the 3 smaller heaters with 2 big ones. The 3 just don't cut it for night time.
