13.5 Evo Tank Build - Desk Tank

[ForTheLoveOfCoral21]

Where did you get this done? I really like it.

Thanks its actually the best lid i have ever had. And because of the mesh, there is no salt creep on the sides like a lot of glass tops cause.


@Reefin Aint Easy did it and it was QUICK turnaround too

I would say to keep the stock light as it works great. Add the skimmer if you can and if youre going to be feeding heavily. This is my three year old stock EVO. run a timer for 12 hours daily, feed reef roids and aminos weekly.

I work from home too.
We have a lot of similarities!

I find the tank increases slacking lol.

Just for curiosity, what are sticks?

Edit. I lied a little bit. I have my work desk and then tank stand next to it.

@JoJosReef I see you on my build thread. In case you thought this was mine, I did not manage to escape the uglies, lol! This is another evo build.

If you already knew that, apologies!

This guy's build is looking super sweet.

RO DI water only, water changes every two weeks, upgraded the back chambers each with a in tank media basket and lots of good filtration and good flow.

How long have you been reefing?

@GHOSTLY - TOO long now, since 1984!

Very similar here, but flow probably not so good--how high do you have the flow in your powerhead? Do you have it pointed against return flow or same direction? Thanks!
