75 gallon in wall build

Here's my first attempt to post a pic.

 

Thanks Eric. It's a little confusing to cut and paste on my ipad.


Take two with p.c.











Success!


Here is the front of the tank. I had to remove a portion of the cinder block wall. The actual opening is the size of the pink insulation.
The tank will sit above a couch when the room is finished. I also toyed with front access but decided against it for asthetic and little
hand reasons. Having three kids under 5 requires a lot of kidde proofing.







































 

 

I still don't know if I'm posting correctly. The last post limited my length?  Here's more pic's of the plumbing and sump.











Herbie Style: 1" full siphon with 1 1/2" emergency.
I also drilled an addional 1 1/2" in the lower left for possible closed loop and another 1" in the overflow for possible secondary durso.













Plumbing still a work in progress. LOL! 
Below is my 30 gallon cube. It's been around for a while. It was doing very well until it had 10 gallons of fresh water pump into it. (Never walk away from an open ro line)
I lost all my invertbrates and coral. The two clowns were the sole survivors.  Back up and running.  This pic is about a month old.  Now its doing well and full of frags thanks
to Dave!  I will try to take a current photo and add it to a future post.
