Mydogs 240g

Mydoghasfleas · Apr 26, 2017

After being out of the hobby, and focusing on my career, I have decided it was time to get back in.

This will be a 4'x4'x2' acrylic cube. The goal is for an sps dominant reef with a minimalistic scape. The tank itself will be kept in the garage.

A refurbished 5 stage SpectraPure RO/DI

Tank covered by some movers sheets for protection as I get the rest of the garage in order. It sits on an aluminum stand.

I am taking my time on this build, and probably won't fill with water for another month or two. Will update with pictures, product reviews, as well as any issues or questions as they arise.

Should be fun and adventurous going forward!!

Nice equipment.
I'm interested in how the Tunze skimmer will perform.

Rob Renken · May 15, 2017

Great start I love the tank!

Mydoghasfleas · May 20, 2017

Thanks @ksed, I'm curious to see its performance as well.

Thanks @Rob Renken

Getting the rest of the garage in order and setting up the RO/DI area. Should be getting a sump sometime soon.

Mydoghasfleas · May 24, 2017

This was waiting for me when I got up today! All that's left before the final install is the sump and JBJ Arctica chiller. Hopefully up and running soon.

The sump will be an acrylic 60" x 24" x 18".

No kidding.

Mydogs is certainly not messing around, that is some nice equipment.

Yeah I agree that is certainly going to be a nice modern build for sure.

Finally getting some legs under this project. Putting this tank in a corner wall, with laundry room converted fish room. Did some plasti dip today to get the second wall black. Wall comes out next week! Pic of the corner wall, and the laundry room.
