Innovative Marine Lagoon 50 AIO Build and Progression

[thom_smith]

I've been out of the hobby for a couple years now. I kept a lot of my equipment and have finally decided it's time to jump back in. I started with the Innovative Marine Nuvo 20 AIO and have now upgraded it to the Innovative Marine Lagoon 50 AIO.

Equipment:
. 2 Radion XR15 Blue Gen5
. XHO Light Strips
. Overflow caddy with ChemiPure Blue and filter floss
. ATO
. ApexEL & WMX module
. Trident
. Innovative Marine Skimmer
. Innovative Marine Grow Light
. Hang Off Back Refugium
. Three MP10s
. Maxspect BioBricks
. Innovative Marine Return Pump
. 150 Watt Heaters (2)
. Fan

Fish List:
. Gem Tang
. Desjardini SailfinTang
. Splendid Fairy Wrasse
. Dusky Wrase
. Two Mocha Storm Clownfish
. Hermits, trochus and conch
. Urchin and sand sifting starfish

Coral:
. Couple torches
. Couple tester SPS ( birdsnest and PC Rainbow)
. GSP
. Blasto

Aquascape is pretty minimalist...

Please enjoy the progress and I always welcome any feedback. Thank you.

Which mount did you use for the lights? Also, where'd you find the fans and how to they secure to the mount/tank? Would like to do something similar in this build...

Hey! I couldn't use the RMS mounts that I have for my XR15s so I went to Lowes and got some pipe and come 90 degree bends and built a stand for my lights.

The fans I got on Amazon, they attach using a clip that the fans come with to the rods of the light stand I built. Here is the link to the fans: Amazon product ... Your build is coming along quite nicely! Looking forward to seeing it's progress.

Any issues with running the Trident in the stand under the tank like you have? I also have an IM AIO and am trying to work out Trident placement. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
