Rick's "Starting Over" Thread!

So, as you all know. The tank crashed and I pretty much lost it all. I was able to save my clams, fish and a about 10 corals. So I'm starting over. While the tank was empty, I decided to make a couple of modifications. Some went great and others, not so much.

I painted the back glass black- Turned out great

I drilled the back if the glass for a closed loop- Turned out great

I removed the right overflow box to gain more room in the tank- Turned out great

.......but while removing the overflow box, I broke the center brace on my 120. That sucks!!! Ordered a new one. Should be here soon, right Stephen?

So the tank is back up now with all new sand and mostly new rock.

The closed loop plumbing is not done yet but here are a couple of pics to get me back in the game. The SEIO will come out when the closed loop is back up and running.







One thing I really like about this new setup is where I took out that overflow box. I have alot more room between the glass and the rocks.


What do you think?


Rick
