    Hello,
    I am upgrading my 72G bowfron to a 120G Oceaninc Tech. I absolutely love it. I am just starting it so please bare with me and be kind. LOL>.. I had to build a stand and took heavy insight from Reid's build. I am waiting on the 40G breeder sump and once that is in I will trim it out and put the doors on. Here are some pics of it so far (temp 20L sump)

    All my live stock is in a 30G holding tank so that I may let this on run for about 2 weeks. It does not need cycling, I used most of the H2O from my BF and topped of with filtered water. I am working on getting an RO/DI. Thanks for looking and please share thoughts and advice.

    Looks like the stand would withstand whatever you can put it through!!!! Really well thought out to be able to have so much access to your sump!!!

    Off to a great start!!!

    Keep us updated with pictures!!!!


    Is that a six or eight bulb T-5 Fixture?


    Either way you have some good-looking start going on!!!

    Thank you all. I do appreciate teh compliments on the stand. Almost done. I wanted enough room to be able to access the whole sump.
    I will follow up with pics.

    That is an 8 bulb T5 HO. Just replaced them 3 days ago. ;D
