Yes or vertical can be done too.
So I recently moved and instead of setting up my Red Sea max650 again I sold it and bought a brand new mega Matrix planet Aquariums 310. It’s a 96” Long tank. Getting all my equipment through Dave at reef trends. (He and Allen even came yesterday to help get it into my house!!) built the supports and table for my sump yesterday morning with Chalan. Thanks again Chris. Here’s a few pictures of where I’m at now. I’ll post updates and pictures as I go along. Going with all ecotech pumps and radion/T5 lighting. Reusing all my apex equipment. Going to have a sand bottom.
Finally got my canopy on. My wife’s uncle (Bob Mohr) is a true craftsman and it fit perfectly with all stainless screws and hinges. Put in 4x48” Geissman fixtures. (4x blue plus and 4x coral plus.) 4 or 6 xr15 pros g5 will follow but now considering 3x xr30 pro. The tank looks amazing with lights on it and the fish look even better. I’ll be adding corals very soon. I’ll start with zoas and shrooms. Need to do a water change and put my dos and ddr online. Looking into a geo ca reactor to enable me to use the dos for mag and trace elements. Started running my turf scrubber the other day and it’s already growing algae. I have plenty of nori but down the line I’ll be drying it and feeding it back to the tangs. So far I have the following fish.
unicorn tang
Blank tang
Achilles tang
Vlamingi tang
Desjardini tang
Hippo tang
Blonde naso tang
Female bellus
Pencil wrasse
Pair of clowns
Had three wrasses that jumped to their death prior to me having the canopy. Flame. Labouti. Diamond tail flasher. That hurt because they all jumped in one day.
