Cheech's 90 g. build

[Cheech]

So after doing more research I changed the design a bit.

Filter sock will go straight into the 45. There will be a baffle in the 45 seperating the "fuge" area from the "sump" area. I'll place the skimmer, heaters and sock in the sump area. From there, water will flow into the fuge area (rock rubble and frags).. the drain will be in the fuge area, draining into the 35g. (not sure if I should add a sock in here as well)..

Chaeto will be in the middle chamber.. Return chamber will also have my media reactor pump which will feed the frag section on the 45g.

What software are you using for the render?

Thanks

Thanks

Autocad 2005.. haven't tried newer versions yet . Apparently they changed their rendering engine which greatly improves rendering capabilities

so I'm slowly getting started.

Tomorrow the plumbers should be moving the hot water tank to its new location. (this corner will be where the sump/fuges will be placed)

I built the stands for the fuge and sump

and here is the 45 gallon (which is currently being used to cure some live rock)

WOWOWWOWO. So excited to see this completed.

Plumbers moved the water tank today and added a sink, which will facilitate water changes.

Next on the list is to install the RODI unit (on top of the sink). This will later be setup with an auto-topoff feeding the sump. Then, break down the 45g, add a baffle and drill a hole for the drain.
