125 Build


Picking the 125 up this evening. It is drilled with 2 drains and a CLS. I'll get pics as soon as I pick it up.

Does yours have the over flow boxes? Those things take up too much room. This one I am just going to use 90 elbows with teeth. Also is your the 6' or 4' version. Mine is the 6' and I'm going with 3 250 14k MH and 4 36" VHO actinics.

Yup...has the weir/overflows in the the back...I prefer the overflow holes in the back with 90's like you are planning. Oh well, the price was right!

Yes it is 6'...that's the main reason I went 125...more swimming room for my tangs!

Still running my old PC's (a 4' and 2') which is fine for now since it is all LPS & softies. 3 250W 14k's and the actinics sounds pretty good though.

Here is my build so far:

Yes very. Can't wait to get it going but have to finish some drywall, tile area for the tank, and put an a/c unit in for my great room. Going to use the 90 as a frag tank and the rubbermaid stock tank as the sump. Those will be in the garage.

Great pictures, cute little hitch hiker too. Have you figured out what you are going to do with all of the bulkhead holes in the back of the tank yet?
