Good luck with your build! I have the SCA 50g and I'm a big fan.

This is currently my red sea setup

Goal for this new tank, start to be semi picky about corals. Have a nice mixed reef that's self depended, I would like to have more sticks in this tank of different variants I didn't get growth out of the ones I had in my red sea except digitas.

Thanks you too also, they seemed to be the best bang for your buck. Picking it up was also a huge advantage getting to see the tank and he gave even a bigger discount than what was online.

WOW! Looks great!

Well that answers my lingering question of where in the world "Clovis" is

About 4.5 hours north of where sca is based out of.

Buddy I gave my 100g too decided let's take a day trip and pick this thing up.
The stand in white at sca

I didn't realize how big 5x2x2 was in a tank until I saw this box

Views

Bought a fairly small house to get me threw the next 5 year's or so, so I can move back to the central coast. The tank takes up much of my living / dining room lol.

The wall behind the tank is a void space from my stairs so I actually cut it out, will frame it with g board, it will hold a water station, and all my electrical and ato. Only thing that will be under the tank will be the sump and a frag tank I'm building into the sump.

Shoob1e · Feb 10, 2019

Got the rock out my red sea but aquascaping didn't go as planned, one bulk head leaking, so I'll work on it more tomorrow :/

Shoob1e · Feb 11, 2019

Middle rock piece drying with emarco it's ******* cold so hopefully doesn't take to long. All the scaping is done. Added sand as it's clearing up too. Add fish this week!
