my 90g braceless/framless tank!! 36x24x24"

[tigerarmy90]

thanks folks...Im pretty stoked about all of the above

now I just need some help picking out my fish, like what kind of tang to go with!?!?

[tigerarmy90]

Here are a few shots to give youi an idea of what the flow is like with the 4 way and dart running...

about 1.5" from the water level to the top of the glass


water going up and over the front glass when the top two returns are firing


I ordered omni flex nozzles from oceans motion to direct the flow so that I can run the pump fully open. For the mean time I have the ball valve clased so its running it at about 60%

[tigerarmy90]

its been a while, I recently reaquascaped and added a few pieces that I had been growing out in my nephews tank!!! The dart is so overkill that there is no way for me to keep the sand down, I have this big spot of bare glass that I plan on cevering with some top notch lps

Looks great man. You did an awesome job with the build What I did to stop the sand storm from the two bottom inputs off my CL was to use lock line with a flare nozzle. It works great and easy to hide if you use just to knuckles for the bend. Loc-Line 3/4 inch x 3 inch Ball Socket Flare Nozzle

thanks alot frankie, Im thinking Im going to give those a shot...I have a few left over from my retun plumbing. I didnt want to pass on the extra flow but may just have to comprimise unfortunatley for me the two top retunrs are pushing the sand back to so I may need them on all four returns...I tried omni flex nozzles and it didnt help, next ill try the locline(cause its a cheaper alternative) and if that doesnt work Im going to order the double omni flex nozzles that would split the flow from each return in two directions!

Your bare bottom spots in yout tank makes me think my 2 clowns have been paying you a visit. Thats all they do! Make naked spots on the bottom of the tank.

Btw, pics look lovely. You did a fine job on it and... rimless tanks look very clean line to me.. but still trip me out.. Haha.

Happy Reefing.

I have the same size tank and love it. My is just a standard acrylic with a rim on the top, but one of the best sizes that I have ever owned.

[tigerarmy90]

def one of the best sizes I have owned...I love having the depth front to back for rockwork! Rimless still trips me out to, it looks like it could just fall apart but they are pretty well built! I cant wait till I have some corals in it to look at

[morbius18]

That is my favorite aspect, front to back depth allows for some amazing aquascaping.

[tigerarmy90]

for sure, nest time Im going 30-36 front to back

heres some shots of some recent additions

rimless makes for an easy escape

[morbius18]

I wish that my lfs had acans. They were supposed to get some aussie corals in yesterday, but they said a week or two now.

[tigerarmy90]

I here you, A few lfs in fresno get them in but are way overpirced per polyp! I drive 2 1/2 hours to get them now...I found a nice little hook up on the coast
