    It won't last long with this fixture! Its actually the fixture that is over the tank on the left side.

    can you describe the quality of the acrylic? did you make them or have them built? scratches/scars? What is the flow rate of the 40g? How big is the sump and does it need to be topped off with water daily due to the surface area exposure? BTW great looking tanks, I am just trying to get a friend of mine in the hobby and this would be her first tank setup. Thanks

    This tank would be way better than a beginner tank! Its very cool! Its a custom built 40g acylic tank. Its made of 1/2" acrylic and was made by a guy in KC, MO named Scott who owns ASD (Aquatic System Designs) Very well known for his calcium reactors and skimmers! Not to mention his awesome tanks! This tank was 600.00 new. It has a 1 1/2" Drain, which means it can handle more flow than you'll ever need. I turned the flow up on a 1500gph pump and had water splashing on all 3 sides. The overflow is custom, the water cascades over a false wall, where i kept cheato and other macro algae. Behind the false wall you have a 1" return that splits into 2 and sprays back into the tank via 2 1" bulkheads. Very custom! The stand is made of Oak. I stained it Ebony black and it has a wave like handle on the door that actually cost as much as the stand. It alone was 75.00 The stand also has a floor in it. It fits a 10g tank perfectly, or a 15g tall tank. With this tank you will actually get a 15g tall. This size of sump will hold a skimmer, return pump and sockfilter. There is no need for a refugium since its already behind the false wall. The pump will actually be a mag18. PLENTY OF PUMP for this tank! You will need to tune it down a bit, but it will also feed a skimmer if needed! The light fixture on this tank is awesome! Its a Custom Sea Life PFO Style Pendant. Reflects awesome light! The pendant also has 2 actinic bulbs in it, and a fan. Very very nice clean fixtue. No rust at all ballast looks almost brand new! Any other questions please let me know. I really don't want to sell these but i have way too many tanks and really want new lights for my large 36x36 cube! Thanks

    I will take the light if you are parting it for $100. I have been looking for a 250w for a 60 cube build.

    If someone buys the 30g cube for 300.00 then you have the first dibs on the 250w light.
