Dan Feller now post your tank or tanks.
I say tanks because you could run a couple pet shops on that thing

The tank is only 135 gallon freshwater community...

It used to be a reef tank and I wanted the extra volume to minimize temperature and salinity/chemistry fluctuation.

I plan on hooking up a couple tanks in my garage to the sump, but it probably won't happen until summer vacation (I'm a teacher).

These are a couple of photos of the tank and a couple of the access panels in the laundry room behind the tank. The drain plumbing is in one access area and the return is in the other.

I did get a few strange looks throughout the construction process when I explained these things were for my aquarium...

Why did you tear down your reef tank?

I had been running it for about ten years and I just got tired of it. I moved all the live rock into a 75 gallon tank that I set up in my classroom, so I still have the option to go back to SW.
