Hey everybody!
I just joined NJRC a little while ago and have been lurking. I hope to meet some of you at north jersey meetings some time.
My current system is in my office. It's a 120g 4 x 2 x 2 with dual overflows. I originally bought this 120 tank to use as a fuge or frag tank in a system I've been planning for some time now for our house. That project is still awaiting completion of our family room and keeps getting pushed back. So, when my office had to move this past summer, I upgrade the 75g I had in my old office to this 120.
Because I had been collecting equipment for the new tank at the house, I did not have to buy anything for this build, I just picked through all the used stuff I'd been collecting for about a year from other reefers and this is what I came up with.
My 75g just before the move
The office after a lot of cleaning!
The tank just set in place
Popped the drain lines thru the wall into a closet under some stairs, shoved the chiller in there too.
Put the ASM G4x skimmer in its own sump next to the chiller
The fuge is a 75 g that sit along the wall in the closet behind the display, the return sump sits underneath the fuge on the same stand. The fuge holds a frag rack too.
I put a 200 cfm vent in on a t-stat it's loud but it really helps with heat and humidity.
There's a 4' false floor between my office and the upstairs where the vent runs
;D
