pics of flyguy lift/barebottom setup


Thanks again Fly for all the rods, It turned out really cool I think!! plus the hollow reef idea is pretty cool, will be a nice spot for the fish to hide out.


Here is some pics of the setup, I'll probably have water in it in a couple weeks, got most of the parts but this rock lift seemed really nice to me and prob one of the more major things to get done before I can put water in it so I snapped some pics

Here they are

Looks good. Cant wait to see some rock and corals in there.

Are you going to be adding spraybars behind??

am still debating it, not sure if I can handle too much noise, what I thought about trying was kinda diagnally facing to tunze nanostreams on each side of the tank maybe put a large rod there to make a bigger opening and direct all the flow under the reef, then I will also point the overflow returns down on each side to blow detritus off of those sides and maybe add a couple of the big tunzes near the top for the main reef flow.


I want a spraybar and a CLS badly but I don't want to do it and then find that the noise is too much for me, I still have a little time to decide, hmmmmm

looks like starboard, basically white plastic cutting board material.

Looks good, I am going to be using one of his lifts as well in my new tank.

Very Nice. I notice you have a gradient of rod heights front to back. What heights did you use?
