The 90G Build.

Well here It Is finally the day has has come sitting real pretty and empty, that Is hopefully not for long. This will be my upgraded/graduation from my current 29G that I think I was able to successfully keep up with and maintain for the past year and a half. A little backround on the setup thats going to take place with It Is, It will be a FOWLR for the time being till I can gain more experience and then take to the next level and maybe some day become a mixed reef. But for now Im pretty content and happy on doing the FOWLR or at least putting a smile on my 3 year old face will be enough to make me know I did a good job. Well here Is pic to leave you with, dont worry there will be many more to follow.

I could only wish a had carpentry skills to make somthing like that. But I have realized that building a stand and canopy can save you tons of $$$.

Re: The 90G Build.

Beautiful tank and stand. Now you need some water and LR to get it started. Be sure to keep us in pics during the process.

Re: The 90G Build.

Aaaahhhhhh some new goodies

I scored a new in the box CSS 220 from a fellow PBMAS member for $100 bux, figured I couldnt pass It up. And got the Jager 250W heater from Finsdepot for $18.99 with the free shipping



One thing I learned when looking at stands Is not having the center brace In the middle, this could be a nice benefit. I guess It would be a pain at times trying to pull a sump In and out for cleaning and maintance.


Again no center support brace, has a pretty stong polyurethane brace going around rim.


Top view.


Bottom veiw.


Well till the next order comes In thats It for now.

For now the only plan I have for It Is a set of T5, but maybe If I can fit It Into my budget Ill go with some MH. But this tank will be only FOWLR for the time being so Ill probably hold off on the extra expense for the MH.
