48x36x22 external overflow

the company i ordered/received the frame work from messed up the order and made a 48x36 instead of a 60x36. they actually did me a favor.

Will be interesting to see how this goes. Don't know whether to say I am sorry or congrats on the error. Congrats on getting a tank though.

 

+1 on above

I am interested to find out how them making something smaller than you ordered
has turned into a bonus for you

rimless with 3/4" sides and bottom

the tank will have 3-1.5" drains ( one fuge, two sump ), 2-1" inputs from 2 main pumps (650 gph each ), 2 pumps ( 1500 gph each )-1.5" closed loop drains w/ 1" returns in line w/ 2 chillers. the external overflow will be along the entire back pane, internal overflows are small and protrude into the tank are an eyesore and dont skim the surface effectively, with a wider overflow more surface area can be skimmed. the overflow slots will be 1/4" wide, height to be determined in order to handle 4500 gph. also 2-tunze 6200 turbines.

fuge will also have an algae scrubber. 2-4 stage aquamedic dosing pumps with liquid elements and phyto. 1x2 steel frame for stand. lumen brights that i was able to put a fan on and two bulbs inside of each reflector. 400w 20k and 250w 14k, 20k instead of actinic or t5, the 14k will only go on for a couple hours mid cycle. reef-relief automatic top off with 2- 5 stage ro/di units.

Interesting. Your designs sooooo cool though and I can't wait to see this baby! I take ot this will be an SPS dominated tank?

 

yup, maybe some lps, maybe.

 

Subscribed! Looking forward to seeing this come together

 

this ones on hold for now, the 42x36 will be rimless when the other 60x36 is done. for now if anyone wants to follow the other thread is called "180 build". same concept, different size tank. sorry, this is a huge headache for me.
