Picked up the 75G tank yesterday from the Hidden Reef. Dance
I just noticed I might have to shim the stand a bit. Dang it, need to make a Lowes run tomorrow.
What type or shims do you all use? also, the Wiff just told me she would not be against the idea of me using part of the storage...
Selling these AWESOME! Maxspect Razor R420R LED lights 160W - 16000K
They were purchase for a 36" tank that I never ended up getting :(
Now that I purchased a 75G tank I need different lights.
Any way, I think $330 firm is a good deal.

WOW! That AquaMaxx ConeS CO-1 In-Sump Protein Skimmer has some very nice reviews everywhere you look. And the price is not that bad $289

I might end up getting one of these. Thanks for the heads up!
Great meeting Matt. Thanks for everything, those sandwiches were delicious!
This was my first NJRC meeting and I have to say I am very glad to have met you all. I got TONS of information and assistance as I kept derailing the conversations constantly to ask questions. :p
I look forward to...
Thanks for the input guys.
Well, I think I should be ok with the gear I have so far then.
However, I do know I will be needing another light. :mad:
Here is a sketch of how the pluming will go. Please let me know what you all think or if there is anything else I should keep in mind.
Whats going on people!
OK. So I finally made up my mind and ended up going with a 75G Deep Blue rimless tank build over the Red See Reefer 250 I was first thinking of purchasing.
Thanks to TanksNstuff for great deal! I quickly acquired a Marineland stand as well as a 30G DIY sump that...
OK.....
Done Deal.
Just picked-up a stand for a 75G tank with a 30G sump. (thanks TanksNstuff)
I will be starting a new thread documenting my adventure in full detail. :p
Need to call the LFS to order the tank now.
Thanks for the link Mikem.
However I think I will be going with a Deep Blue rimless 75G tank.
Not sure about the stand yet or what type of overflow to use. (Durso, Herbie, etc..)
I know man....I have been drooling at the Reefer and Cadlights tanks for some time now.
My only issue now is that I already have a Maxspect R420R 160W I just got from Ebay for a good price and now I wont be able to use it on a 48 in tank. :mad:
O well.....
Awesome....
Lets hope it holds up then.
Can any of you point me in the right direction then?
I have a budget of around $1300 for tank + Stand + sump.
What do you all recommend?
I am pretty handy, however I have never built a stand before. :(
Man......
Thanks for the comments guys, you all are really giving me a lot to think about :indecisiveness:
Is there any easy set you all would recommend?
i.e..
75 G tank (Deep Blue or all clear or marineland) + What stand and what sump?
I promised the wife I would keep the accidental spill to...
Hello all,
Getting back in to the hobby after some time and still not sure what tank to get. however due to the basement under me, I have to keep the tank+sump to under 75 gallons or so. (Weight concerns)
that being said, I have been looking at the Red Sea Reefer 250. ($1300)
I do...
