11F150's Reef Savvy Cube Build

[11f150]

Looks great so far! Keep it up!!
Where's a pic of the sump and all running??

Im going to keep the sump area pretty simple as see how it goes. I still need to organize it to where I want but it is up and running. Im waiting on power strips to get here and then start hiding wires/cords the best I can. The overflow is a limited edition glass-holes.com 1500 gph box with built in return. It has two 1.5" tubes for the overflow to the sump then with a eheim 1260 for the return pump. Here are a few pics.

Looks great Matt! I am stoked for you man. And I truly am looking forward to see how it will look in a few months. You blew me away with your skills with the last tank, especially being that small.

Got any livestock ideas or lists already made?

Thanks Chris...I really need to start figuring out what I want for fish. I really havent sat down and put a list together. For sure though Ill get a pair of clowns and a few chroms. Ill still have a while before I get any fish so Ill start thinking about it. have any suggestions on what would be a good fit for my size tank?

I would stick with smaller fish that dont like to jump, being that it's a rimless tank.

Start looking into anthias, a cool blenny is always nice. I would go with a Kole tang maybe too. It wont ever outgrow your tank.
