Far from a pro. Lol. But thank you. I did a lot of research before I went from a FOWLR tank to this. This is my first go and I'm about a year in

Great looking tank. I replied on your other thread but I just noticed you're a fellow Floridian. So welcome again.

If you're in the florida area he ships. Good prices and great products. Not sure if the mods will be upset. Local guy starting out.

Thank you. I found the plans on eBay actually and a buddy of mine built it for me. I stained it and painted the insides. I love it too.

just a little update on the 125g build. I made some equipment changes, lights are still the same, had a few major issues along the way. almost crashed the whole tank on an alk spike and then sudden drop. added some dosers for alk and calc otherwise the tank is as it was with a bunch of new corals and fish. been about 4 years now and finally getting the hang of things, especially chemistry.
