After the livingroom remodel I’ll start on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentNight1793 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 The Evo tank is really nice. I have had one setup for about a year and a half as a zoa garden. The biggest issue I have had with it is the protein skimmer. The water level has to be kept at a very certain level for it to work, otherwise it goes a little haywire. I did upgrade the lighting to a kessil A160W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentNight1793 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 @Joe I don't have a build thread for it sadly. I did end up removing the stock lid and fabricated a top with an acrylic sheet I picked up at my local Lowe's. The tank has been my grow out right now for zoa's and paly's with a few other corals. I will be upgrading to a larger tank for all my zoa's and paly's in the next week or so and will be redoing the evo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
