Reefs September 19, 2012 Author Share September 19, 2012 (edited) I used the box at the bottom instead of the one behind the tank to hold the equipment (filter,heater,thermometer)and the chaeto algae, it also have room for floating valve that will help with evaporation issue.

smallreef September 19, 2012 Share September 19, 2012 Will look good when they all start to open! I really like your idea of using the "stand" to house the equipment needed... makes it look alot cleaner than it coming out of the back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
