Well since the 200 takes up most of my living room I had to break down my display refugium and move all my macro and sponges to a 40 breeder under my stand for a refugium. With that I had a spare tank laying around. So far the only thing I had to buy was a light, everything else I had already!!! Sump is curing so I'll plumb it all in this weekend.
Cool looking tank! It looks like it is drilled in the back, can you tell me how that is doing because I have been tossing around the idea of drilling my JBJ 29 gallon butt have ultimately decided to go with an over flow to get water putt of my tank. Sent from my A100 using Tapatalk
Drilling was easy. Set up two drain lines and one return line. So if one drain gets cloged completely it still won't overflow my office. Just now got the bulk heads installed and am half way through plumbing it, but wiht my big tank in piecies at the moment this project will have to wait a week or two unfortunately. I put a sump on my 29 biocube a couple of years ago and it was pretty easily. so I'm guessing the nano cubes would be the same concept just with the drain on the left instead of the right I believe.
tank update: We have decided to move this tank into the master bedroom so my GF will get out of my office since it's pretty much here tank at this point. So I haven't plumbed in the sump yet. Other than that I've added a pair of mis-bar clowns, and a coral beauty. With those come a super amazing suprise of a couple of my first corals from my original tank I sold. My friend who bought the tank gave me them back and I'm realizing how much I missed them
Finally got around to moving everything into a spare 20 gallon tank so I could really get things moving. Stand modified: Background painted some light blue color (Erin picked it...) Somehow I managed to fit all the plumbing, along with a skimmer rated for a 150 gallons, that should keep the thing clean right.
Anyone ever had that sick to your stomach feeling set in the second you realized what just happened... So this project is officially on hold for one week till I get in a new tank, I am going to try and look on the bright side of things here and I have decided to upgrade to a 30 gallon half moon tank since I have to re do all that work anyways. Might as well get a better tank out of all that
I wish it were that easy, but a bow front tank won't fit on the half moon tank stand at all. But I still like the half moon tanks better than bow fronts I think.
