    That's right!! Another 90 gallon build to add to the long list of already AMAZING builds before mine. Here's my background. I have a 75 gallons set up right now and HATE the set up. I have a HOB fuge with a built in skimmer and hate how many micro bubbles and little particles are floating around in the DT. Now I'm going to upgrade to a 90 gallon reef ready. There will be lots of pictures along the way and I'm sure lots of questions as well. Now I will stop the blabbering which is what I'm good at (Army Recruiter) and post some pictures.

    My DIY sump that has a skimmer section, return, and fuge. Thanks to another member on here(Alex)

    And a little plumbing teaser.

    Should be getting the tank later this week and the tear down and set up should take most of the weekend and all the inhabits will be right at home in their new tank.

    ^What he said about the RO/DI. Specrapure's 90 gal refurbished units are back in stock and great bang for the buck. I've been using mine for about an year and have no complaints at all.

    Mine is spectrapure as well. Having your own RODI is important as far as im concerned.
