Well, I figured I'd start a build thread here since I'm constantly modify the crap out of BC29 and I thought I'd share a little. I know most of it isn't "ground breaking" or anything, but it's still cool.....a little ha!

So here is is with the hood removed after installing a Kessil a360we.

Inside the cabinet after adding a sump and overflow:

Skimmer is a Skimz SN123 that I just got and added yesterday (replaced a Deepwater Aquatics HOB). Just running GFO now but switching it out for a combo of GFO and carbon this weekend.
Had some algae issues that really did a number on some of my acans, so trying to get them healed back up.
 
very nice~ again we can play id the invert by its whiskers

i spy a lysmata tinkering among the rocks lol

excellent work and clarity, thanks for posting and welcome!

ps, this game is not unlike ID'ing cars by their headlight arrangements only at night lol
 
LOL, no kidding!

Thanks! The tank's starting to come back around now. Had a nasty bout with cyano that covered everything faster than I could siphon it out. I'm still not 100% certain what caused it, but adding the sump/overflow and removing the HOB refugium seems to have helped tremendously. It's almost undetectable now, but the damage is done.....starved out some of my acan colonies and damaged a couple of smaller ones. Other corals and my larger colonies are rockin' now though.....so I guess it all worked out in the end.
 
Looking great! you did a good job of packing all these stuff inside the stand :) ....Nice!!!
 
Ok, so moved all, well most, of the electronics over to a little stand/cabinet I set next to the tank. Here's how it looks now (little roomier):
