New 180 build

great job Duel. I really like the extra section ya built .
The extra section is gonna be for a frag tank setup in the future. They had an awesome deal a a Deep Blue frag tank where I purchased the main tank but it was to long to fit the space. The wife even said you need to buy that! That is cheap. It was 48 x 24 x 12, I only have 38 inches of counter. Oh well I will keep my eyes open for a deal that will work.
 
I was able to build my stand wall to wall so I got plenty of room for extra's . Very convenient to have

We have a built in corner table that I made on the other end of the tank not seen in the picture, I wish it could have been wall to wall. lol
 
Got some plumbing done and a few other odds and ends.

Looking good. I have a Planet Aquariums 180 ordered. Just waiting for delivery. Can't wait to see your progress.
 
Quick update, sorry for long absence. Got the main tank up and running along with the frag tank. Still have to finish the doors on the stand but so far everything is doing good.

2 completely separate systems Clayton, that way I can quarantine new stuff coming in and not worry about any hitchhikers in the display tank. Thanks for the compliments

I am gonna steal a couple Illuminati Zoas out of the wife's 10 gallon tank and hopefully get them to take off so I can put them in the new tank. I also have a pretty cool ricordia shroom that keeps multiplying I am gonna move to the new setup to. The pic of the illuminati is from June, she now has 11 polyps, hope she don't miss a couple. lol

Those definitely look like they could be the Shadow government behind the New World Order! Trippy! [emoji23]

World Wide Corals are selling them for $199.00 per polyp, we started with 1 that I scored for $40.00. If they keep growing like they have been I will be sitting on a gold mine.
