Hi - got a great deal on a 125 gal (glass - approx. 72" x 18" x 22") tank, stand and hood, and are thinking about moving the new reef from the 55 gal acrylic (never again!!!) Uniquarium to this tank. We will need a sump, of course, and a skimmer and want a fuge. Lighting is also a need.
We need some suggestions on how to go about this. Is there a way to do most, or at least some of it DIY? What brands, styles and models do you suggest? there is plenty of room under the stand for sumps and stuff.
We are not wealthy people and know this will have to be a slow process and are willing to let the tank set fallow and empty of critters for a while so we can get the right stuff set up first.
it is our 7th tank, so we are not in a hurry to fill it. also it is in the bedroom, so we won't be sitting there all evening going, "Dang, that tank needs fish"
Thanks in advance for your ideas, suggestions and advice.
