"46 Gallon AGA Bowfront Full with stand


Fullsize Pic.
Here is a wide angle view. The stand is an AGA pine stand. I really was disappointed that it had to be disassembled to put the sump underneath it. At least I know it was well built. I only needed to remove the door and door strip to get it to fit. I actually did this while the tank was full!! The hood is a DIY homebuilt Low profile hood that houses 1- 96 watt 8800k PC ,1-96 watt Actinic 03 PC and 1-24" 20 watt 10k NO bulbs with a full length reflector. Dont mind the balloons, it was my daughters birthday. If you click on the fullsize pic. on the left side of the pic in the tank, you can see my DIY acrylic overflow. Works like a charm! On the back there is a HOT Custom Sealife 30" tall Counter current skimmer run with a Minimag pump and Tetratec deepwater air pump. On the right side there is a H.O.T. Magnum canister filter. I use it to run carbon and also I can pop in the micron cartridge for quick water polishing. I plan on continueing to use this even though I have been advised they are nitrate factories. I have however removed the outer foam and use just the carbon canister. The sump is located under the stand and is a 20 gallon Amiracle 20 gallon sump. I partitioned off one end and will use it as a refugium/timeout area.
