Lakeviewink 120g

Well, after a small delay due to life happening, I have an update. I just ran a freshwater leak test and to make sure all my engineering is sound. Everything is running awesome, the C2C overflow is awesome and the BeanAnimal drains are silent and sweet. I just need to drill one last emergency drain and then I'll be ready to roll, finally. It has taken way longer than I thought it would for this design and build but it has been so much fun. I love evey little bit of this hobby.

Now, for the big change-over, hopefully this Sunday. Wish me luck..................

Runnin' the fresh test-

I still have to put the doors back on the stand too. Thanks for looking

Very cool overflow. Looking forward to the progress. What are the plans for the tank? SPS? LPS? etc...

I'm just transferring my existing system which is equal parts SPS,LPS and Zoas. 7 fish with a LTA as well.

Looks great, like the overflow and the work on the stand.

Changeover 95% complete. I will get some better photos as soon as I have a little time and I move a few things around in the tank.

It took me just around 15 hours to move everything into a 100g Rubbermaid, move the old monstrosity out, new beauty in, and put everyone into their new hacienda. So far, no casualties as far as I know, though many Nassarius and Hermits are unaccounted for.

Thanks for viewing.
