It's a 38g AA tank , 3/4" rimless acrylic, built in external overflow. Has a eshopps s120 skimmer a 20g 2 chamber sump and will run my A4 Nova LEDs on it.

Well, after Duma and I inspected the seams ;) we decided it needed to be buffed. I tried halfheartedly to use the novus system, I realized it was worth doing professionally! So much work! So George and Chris at Acrylic Pros hooked me up, if I drove it to Whittier they would bang it out overnight and I could pick up next morning :) great guys, and a great deal!
Got her home and it looks great! Crystal clear.. Set it up w 40 lbs dry caribe sea sp grade reef sand, est rock I picked up from a local reefer buddy Zach, and went to Compton for a great deal on cured Tonga.. Added half sw from my 90 g reef other half new, and a bottle of dr Tim's bacteria..http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/25/my7y3yvu.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/25/9ytebu3a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/25/ezamu2ur.jpg

Yucky left side ( needs some work lol)
And then after testing for 5 days I am ammonia:0 Nitrite: 0 nitrate :40! Doing a WC and gonna toss in the ponies tomorro maybe :)
And the sacrificial offering to the tank has proven the reef gods agreeable ;) so the ponies are next! Woohoo! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/25/2a8ute2e.jpg
Will hopefully be adding a pair if dragonface pipes and a pair of Mandys later after I get the eggcrate box made to house the Cheato for a Refugium in the sump. ( since it is only 2 chambers)...will post updates as I get the ponies in :)
Thanks for looking!
