David R's 2000L tank build

[TheDepot]

That is an awesome tank! Cant wait to see it fill up with fishes

great stuff - have you got the pumps ready as well?

What size pipe return and what turnover?

 

[David R]

I've got a Laguna MaxFlo 11000, two 50mm drains and one 40mm return. That should be around 4 times turn over, which should be plenty for the light-moderate stock.

Got the Poret today, going to start filling tank tomorrow.

Mate, could you post a couple of sump shots when you have everything in it? Would appreciate it

No problem! Still need to add bio media, heaters, pump and bulkhead for drain.

Must be full by now.

Look tiny with the water in? Take some time to heat it
