My new build, first reefer.

I just wanted to share some pictures of my build with the community I just recently purchased a used red 525 XL.

I’ve definitely done my research and I feel I’m on the right track. Just wanted to see what the community thought.

As my red Sea tank is first GEN I do have some concerns not having the vertical support where the two double doors open I’ve heard it can cause the silicone to fail overtime. is this something I should be worried about?

Starting with all the bells and whistles! Looks like it’ll be awesome!

In all Fairness, the lights and assembly are used fair price on marketplace. The Neptune system used marketplace came with the tank. the sump was a little pricey fortunately, it was a good sale price all the plumbing I did was new along with heaters and the inkbird for heater redundancy control through Neptune. The reactors are new fair price on sale

I consider myself fortunate to have had a good paying job since I was 18 years later I’ve earned this and I’m gonna enjoy every minute of it. I look forward to cycling in the near future..
