560g reef build (800g system)

Got the 395nm LED strip light installed under the stand. Glowing like skittles now! Have 8 colors of dosing containers to go still.

UV sterilizers installed. I'll hook up the media reactors in a week when I get back home from corporate. Them start moving corals. Sooo close!

Matching iron stand with 3 40B frag tanks next to it. Top two tanks plumbed into the main system for outgoing frags. Bottom tank on it's own system for incoming frags. Drilling the last 40B today.

Like the tank with just the one rock in the middle I've been thinking of doing a nano tank simple like that and minimal
 
This is a nice build. Very clean. Love the glowing pipes and sump!
 
Stand and Sump in place.

560g is in the house! Finish plumbing tomorrow, then fill with RO for a week. The end is on sight. The 46BF is moving in a couple weeks, replaced by another steel stand with 3x 40B frag tanks. 2 will be plumbed into the DT for outgoing frags, 1 on its own for incoming frags. Still have to move the other dosing pump and 4 dosing containers, plus media reactors from the 265g. Plus the other heater and UV. Adding 2 more 36w UV for 3 total. Plus move the whole ARCHON control system over. Lots of work left before I can transfer corals.

Nice set up
 
Is the pvc green that you plumbed it with? If so where did you get it
 
PVC is just painted with Krylon Neon Yellow. Yellow PVC will not glow under black light.

Never goes as fast as you want... Soooooo close. Moving last of the corals and rock Friday. Half of the 265g filled the 3x 40B, just corals. Rock is still in the tank. lol.. Moving rock and gluing these in Friday morning, then the rest Friday night. Fun Times! ReefKeeper Archon is running everything now. Installing lights Friday night as well.
