tjh9100 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Everything has settled a bit for the most part and it is hard to see the details in the rock structure but I took this at 430 when I was getting ready for work.

tjh9100 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 You will be able to see it better after I fill it the rest of the way after work and get a pic with the tank light on Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjh9100 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 And I will take pics of different angles. The structure is a little off centered but there is room all around it for coral and swimming room for the fish.

tjh9100 Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 Everything seems to be doing good. Eventually I am going to change some things. For example I would still like to get the main part of the sump under the stand and my ato. This means having a separate tank for refugium and doing some fun plumbing. Also I am going to need to upgrade my return pump due to the added height this return line has compared to the old tank. About an additional foot and a half. My pump does seem to be keeping up but I probably lost about 100 gallons an hour circulation. Currently due to time constraints I have taken a couple ceiling tiles out and have one of my black box leds hanging over the tank. It seems sufficient but I also would like to build a hexagon hood and utilize both of my lights. Having lost a fish and a coral or two I absolutely have to replace them with something. Overall though for being a quick build I am very happy with the way the tank looks and how everything seems to be doing after having my other tank break.

tjh9100 Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Just got back in town and everything is running smoothly. Nothing is dead and only two corals got knocked over while I was gone. Looks like everything seems pretty content with there locations on the tank also and doing OK under just one light.

Karmann Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Looks great, I never thought about it before but with the shape of the tank and your rock placement you should be able to get an excellent view and pictures from any side. I guess that is an advantage for the hex tank. tjh9100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
