Pretty much free access otherwise I would not be able do maintenance behind the back side of the tank. I am just as passionate about the equipment side of things too, and will have free and easy access to the equipment side of things as well.

Thanks.
I have a build thread called the house reef upgrade where I showed the build. Lost most of the pics due to a bad memory card though. |

Going to be a very sweet tank and setup when you are done.

Great looking set up. The tank is sweet and so is the sump. Geo does awesome work, he built my 240 gallon tank. Is he building anything else for you?
I was just talking to a local member about your tank, I hadn't seen any update on it on our site. Cora. Glad to see its still coming along! Corey |

It is time for some more updates!
Next up are some of the major equipment components I added for this project. Special thanks goes out to Reef Dynamics and Titan Aquatic Exhibits for these gems! Last edited by aquavista99; 11/06/2017 at 04:24 PM. |

Purchased 10 years of replacement parts and modified pumps for the skimmer and calcium reactor in advance too. While Reef Dynamics is no longer in business, my plan is to keep this heavy duty equipment in operation for decades to come.

Lookin good Tim..........everything is top notch
That skimmer is a beast, very similar to the old style Deltecs. which was by far the best skimmer I ever owned.

Thanks, Ed! Glad to have you along for my build too. I have had great success with Reef Dynamics/Euroreef skimmers in the past and I am still running my Euroreef RC 500 skimmer now on my grow out system...It's over 10 years old now and still runs like a champ.

I've been following your build also. Very impressive! I can't wait to see it up and running and also excited to see the scape in this tank. Looking awesome so far!

That's a seriously huge skimmer!! Odd though that it doesn't employ fewer, larger pumps.
