Flippers reef 125 gallon

[Flippers4pups]

I’ve only made it through 10 pages or so and I’ve already stolen all your plumbing plans, some good stuff here. Can’t wait to use for my new set up. Beautiful tank too!

Thank you! Glad I could help. It's what it's all about!

Weekend update:

No water change this weekend, just ATO top off. Running GAC for the toadstool frags, so I'm good on water change till next weekend.

Worked on the yard all today.

Toadstools are looking very good!

Thank you. I've told the story about them before. About six or seven years ago my stepdaughter bought me two dieing heads of that for father's day. I could begin to say how many heads I have now. 500+ possibly.

That’s awesome. Candy cane coral has always been that ONE coral that I can’t seem to keep

I can not believe the difference in appearance. How far apart are these photos?

I’m looking forward to some underwater fish eye videos

I'm looking into it as it's one thing I'd like to do.

@Victoria M, last night's progress:

I'll be testing how well they're attached tonight. If we are good, off comes the rubber bands.

Dang the frag tank is full!

Just overflow from the DT.

Toadstools are free of the rubber bands and fully attached to the rubble rock!

Are you making a fish store trip this weekend?

Are you making a fish store trip this weekend?

Don’t know yet.
My cell phone crapped out on me and I needed a new phone today. I could call out without a horrible noise.

Me and the wife were to got to the phone store to get a new one when I got home from work. Well I get home and she already got me a phone. A iPhone 11!

Still setting it up.

Wow incredible tank! It took me 4 days but I finally got through your thread. It was like reading a good book and I’m finally at the end. I’m picking up my 125 gallon tank this weekend and will be slowly setting it up in the coming months. Hoping to have fish in it by Christmas.
Your thread here is loaded with such useful information I barely know where to begin with the questions. I have seen a few things you did that I’d like to incorporate in my tank.
I looked into the viparspectra lights and they look impressive for the price. My question is do you think that 3x165 watt fixtures are sufficient for a 6’ tank or 2x300 watt fixtures?
I have a 2” red monti frag I just got for my 32biocube last month and now you’ve helped me set a goal as to where I’d like it to be in 3 years.

Glad to have helped! Yes three 165w units will work well!
