Just wow, this makes so much sense, my last AIO was 170 litres, currently running 138 G water volume with just a refugium, I like KISS, great build!
One question, are you not frightend witless each time you clean the "acrylic / plastic"?
Yes scratching Acrylic is kinda a pain I am not going to lie.. This said if i do scratch my tank I can just sand it out... This is a big bonus to me as glass once it is scratched that is about it...
Your skills!
Thank you all
... I do try to make cool looking stuff! I am still waiting for R2R to ask me to do there logo......??? Hint Hint... I hope to do a decent update on my tank this weekend as Neptune might have solved my issues with the apex.

Sad and Happy news.. The tank is up for sale... well the livestock and equipment and I am moving.
This is sad as I have enjoyed this tank quite a bit but with the tank closing I can now build a even bigger tank... cough.. 24 feet long cough..
I am selling everything in one lot as I can not bother selling it in chunks.
Well that is about it for now we will see what I can sell this monster for. I have it listed for 12k cnd but looks like I will be getting 8-10k for it. We will see how long I want to keep it going before I break down.

I have decided to document the tear down of this tank.. This should be fun as i wait to setup my new tank...
I will be scraping the tank so you will all see me cut it apart.
I am going to start packing up today and should have the tank empty this weekend.

Yes it is... I had a buyer that wanted the tank but he backed out last minute.. I think it was a little overwhelming moving the system. I never made the tank to be sold though so no skin off my back. I was giving the tank away free to the last buyer who was going to buy the rest of the system
.I am happy though to be moving on.
None just wanted something different...

Here is a start..
What the tank looks like as of right now..
I have gave up on cleaning off the coralline algae as I cutting up the tank.
Loading up truck full of stuff... Had to get a bunch of boxes and consolidate all equipment.
Fish storage room
Sorting gear for whoever buys it at this point.. (buyer backed out)
I started to clean things here is the extra sss-5000 i have all cleaned up.
It is amazing how much stuff i have to get rid of....... This is just the start and it is scary. I hope someone who can use all of it comes and snatches it away. We will have to see
The livestock is sold and will be picked up this weekend. I cant wait...
On a side note here is the next project I will be working on with Aquariumspecialty.com......
A lot more details to come on this.. It will be amazing Keep a eye out on a new build thread..
Hint: I am not setting up this tank but building something for it...
