First of all, HUGE shout out to John over at Advanced Acrylics! He got me a quote on a custom 60x18x16 tank literally within minutes via email. I got this tank for $1050 SHIPPED from California to Indiana, amazing! I ordered it on 11/18 and it shipped today, crazy! Looks gorgeous in the pictures, can’t wait to see it in person next week! Will replace the 40g breeder I had in my office. Bought a complete used system over the weekend that will donate a full apex system, pro clear sump and some other goodies. Will update the build here as it comes together over the holidays. First pic is the space in my home office where the tank will go and then the tank pics!

Way ahead of schedule since the tank got here before I thought. Only had to make one trip to Lowe’s

Did a leak test for a couple weeks and got everything dialed in. Filled up with saltwater a couple days ago and we are off and running. System is pretty much 100% online other than adding some MP10s, a trident and dos/ddr. Added the Kessil A360X’s and love these lights! Controlling with Wi-Fi/apex. Not as blue as the picture looks but love having the LED color choices and ramping schedule with the shimmer of halides! Added 20 lbs of dry sand and a 40 lbs bag of the oceans direct live. Was wanting live from TBS but that was an epic disappointment. Ended up ordering 40 lbs of KP rock that will be here in a couple weeks. For now I added a couple rocks and some coral from my 300 gallon stock tank in the basement to start building the bio filter. Should be able to start stocking in a few weeks!
