  • my 40g breeder saltwater build

    found my old stand and canopy for an 40g breeder in the back of the storage. just pulled it out and going to be starting a new reef tank. stand and canopy still in good condition but have some scuff. started sanding down the paint and will be painting it soon.thinking about painting it black again or white. let me know waht you think.IMG_0241.jpgIMG_0242.jpgIMG_0243.jpgIMG_0244.jpgIMG_0246.jpg

            looking good man.

            I love the dimensions on a 40B!

            Maybe I can set up a frag tank. :)

              What are you going to keep in the tank?

                            Skimmer space us a bit tight but all looks good man.

                            You painting it black?

                            I actually like a clear background on reef tanks now.

                              i forgot about the skimmer when i was making the fuge. looks like i have to go with a smaller size one, theres about 6 inch of spacing. just finish painting the tank black
