120 peninsula build

I am so going to enjoy this vicariously through you. As I don't have room for anything. Hell I had to downgrade and now I am running two canister filters because I have no room for a sump or a refugium.
Do it up my friend!!!! I will try and keep as many photos and updates as possible. I've never documented a tank this way, I'm enjoying this part immensely. And it's great hearing other peoples comments and ideas. Thanks again for joining in on the fun!
 
This is my tiny setup lol and it needs work. :/ any suggestions from you would be appreciated as you know what you are doing. I am winging it lol.

Fuge is full, old rapid LED, DIY fixture is hung for the fuge. Rock rubble baffle is filled. Orphek lighting should be here in a little over a week. I need to order some AF products to get the cycle kicking. I also need to get some test kits. Not sure if my Red Sea kit is expired or not. It's probably 4-5 years old so I'm guessing it is. I have zero idea where ammonia, phosphates, and nitrates lie. Not gonna worry about that until I get sand in it. I need to figure out how to install my old external skimmer until I can get a new more appropriately sized internal one. That's were things stand as of now.

That's a beautiful softy tank. Do you have a build thread? I need to see more to give any advice. Looks fantastic though, and thanks for the very generous compliment.
 
I wish I did. I did not think about documenting it. This tank was done last second because my bow front decided to fail. The light I had on it made the center brace pop and I just ran out and got a 65g tall. But now I have no space for a sump or a refugium so I am running 2 canister filters and looking for a better light. But the catch is that I can't spend anything right now because I have a 2nd kid on the way. And "Leo" jobs do not pay much lol. You do the job because it's a calling not because of the pay.
