Provider of awesome
Right so for ages I’ve been running a 50 gallon reef, but about a year ago I ran into some financial hardship, was forced into a move and had to give it up. Shame sure but I’m a bright side kind of guy and have since done a complete 180, all the while dreaming of getting back into the hobby. Recently after some research as to material availability (I live in rural northern Ontario) and discussions with a friend at my local LFS I place the order for my 72” 100 gallon tank and stand. At the time I wanted to save myself some headaches so I had it predrilled and had the bulkhead installed before delivery.
Picture of the tank and stand, you’ll notice another tank below, that’s cobalt my python.

I picked up a 20 gallon tank for dirt cheap at my LFS because they like my patronage/the boat loads of cash I spend there. I’m in the process now of turning it into my sump with some glass I had lying around. It was trial and error with the glass cutter, I managed to botch about 4 or 5 good sized chunks, but once I got the hang of it I got them all cut and I’m waiting on the silicone to dry up.
Here is the sump partially built, I still need to add about two more sheets of glass for the water return section, my return pump has also been ordered and should be in next week.
(yeah i know there are cd's in there and its all siliconed in, but i made sure i could get them out first ;)
More to come, keep checking in.
Cheers,
Kosmo
