In the process of rebuilding my reefer 170. Cramming a lot of equipment in the tiny cabinet, but I think it will all work well. Have a look and let me know your thoughts! I'm sure most people will consider this over engineered for such a tiny tank, but I'm trying to make care as easy as possible this time around. Have fish, corals, rock, and bio media from the old setup hanging out in a 40 gallon tub from tractor supply while this gets rebuilt.
