75 Gallon redo that became a 220

[ochriso]

Finally getting back to this thread. I will try to share as many photo's as I have been able to come up with. My wife had a few so here we go

working on manifold fit original plans to use avast spyglass reactor picked up a medium and large from seller on here.

adding water for leak test. surprisingly only had 2 small leaks from bulkheads not being properly tightened.

this is the rock we had from our purchase.

the large purple piece we picked up at wwc on a previous trip down that way.

my wife has always done the rock work and we are super happy with the final result. all stacked locked in with no glue,putty or anything.
it definitely is a lot of rock but we went minimal with the rock in our last redo and liked it but preferred the previous ones we had with more rock

had the guys from SBReefs bring out 130 gallons of fresh saltwater pumped straight into the tank

pardon that custom cardboard surround but had to make it somewhat cat proof.

the water level is low while I was making more water but had the mp40wqd keeping things moving

the plan is to have 6 radion xr30 pro's so. I wanted a mount that I could easily adjust and point the light in different directions so I came up with this.
I ordered some out door speaker mounts and made a plate to mount to the light from 1/4'' acrylic.

made this part of the mount to sit inside the canopy out of black 1/2'' corian material

finished product

currently have 3 of theses but can make more if I need to
