135gal Reef Build (Many Pics)

ragvette · 03-24-2008, 07:42 PM

I picked up a 135Gallon Oceanic Aquarium last month.

Here is the tank the day I picked it up sitting in my garage in need of some cleaning. It was too heavy for only two guys to carry it into my basement. Also it should be easier to clean in the garage and then give the back a new coat of paint without messing up the house.

Side view:

Some of the clean-up progress completed. A spray bottle of a water and vinegar mix gets most of the corline algae off. Using a razor blade I got all the corline algae off and it makes quick work of removing the paint on the back.

135g tank is almost cleaned up and below is the 55g sump plus a 29g the person also had when I picked up the 55g. I figured the 29gal will make a good refugium above the 135g once its setup and running.

Anyone know who's tank this was?

Nope. Who's?

It sure did clean up nice though. Great job!
