[nanoreefbro]

Ok well since everyone is showing off their Socal tanks I figured I would show mine. I just picked it up last week so still work in progress..

Tank Dimensions: 48x30x24
Overflow Box: 3 holes two 3/4, one 1 1/2

More pics.. A special thanks to Randy at SocalCreations for building it.. The quality is outstanding, Kamilek for the advice, Reefryder for helping get this monster home, and Onad75 who is gonna help me plumb this bad boy...

[nanoreefbro]

Kamil wanted to see the space where I'm putting the tank.. I am replacing my existing tank..

[Reefryder]

Hey, anytime dude...I would do it again in a heartbeat.....Can't wait to see it up and running......

[nanoreefbro]

and build you a stand
That is a perfect spot for the tank. I forgot to tell you, maybe you could plumb the 55 that's on the other side of the wall together with this system.
Everything is looking good.
Still not too late for a CL.

Yeah but he is gonna be busy helping me with the plumbing.. He's probably not gonna have time to build a stand.. After looking at the tank and the entertainment center I just decided to let Socal build the stand.. It's in the den so it's gotta match up with the rest of the furniture.. Plumb the 50 Gal huh?? Don't give me more ideas..

You'll save money on electricity and cut down on noise in the bedroom (?).

I'll have to give it some thought.. I've got some phospate issues in my 50 Gal..

Forget the G2, go with the Octopus skimmer from ReefTank and p/u from CA.

Anyway you can get the Octopus Skimmer modded for a gate valve??

For lighting, have you thought about this?

You can get the 6 bulb fixture and add 2 more SLR icecap reflectors/and bulbs to make it an 8 bulbs unit.

The UltraSolaris with AquaScience bulbs is awesome.

No I haven't.. Do you know if you can mount it to a canopy??

If you have a canopy that will fit it. The height is not that tall but the length is 48". I was thinking of getting it but my canopy is 48.5 inches in length but only for 9" in width for that length. My canopy is actually 18" in width but there are some areas in my canopy that only allows 47" in lenght due to a verticle brace bar.

Wow those dimensions are my dream dimensions. Droooool keep us posted.
