Beardown's 90g Rimless Cube Build

[Beardown]

Finally getting back to it. I have the cube and stand set up, but it's a work in progress. This will be mainly SPS/LPS setup. Here's what I'm working with:

Marineland 90g rimless Cube
Marineland Stock stand
Ecotech Radion XR30W Pro
Eshopps RS-200 Sump
Simplicity 240 DC Skimmer
Apex Classic Gold
Neptune WXM module
2x MP 10s
2x HMX-300S Finnex Titanium Heaters (One for RO/DI water in basement)
Cobalt MJ - 1200
Tunze Osmolator 3155 ATO
BRS Carbon/GFO Reactor w/ Maxijet pump
Jeboa DCS 3000 Return Pump

My plan is to have bucketless waterchanges from my basement, using a 75gpd RO/DI system and obviously plumbing.

I'm welcome to any suggestions, going forward. Pictures to come!

I did a 2"1/2 hole in my floor for my pvc's.1"drain, 3/4 for return and 1/2 clear hose straight to sink for water changes.

Thank you for the suggestion. I definitely want to make water changes as easy as possible

Also..is up to you but..you got a nice sump but I will recomend you at least a 40 breeder sump for extra room if is going to be down the basemant.

Just a little update. FINALLY getting my RO/DI put in tomorrow, so I should have water in it shortly. Will take pictures of plumbing this weekend.

EDIT: No idea why the picture is flipped 90 degrees...

Got my pukani from BRS. Cooking rock as we speak.

It looks good so far. Is there a difference between that tank and the 93g? I hope you have better luck than I did with that light, I may have to copy your graphs if it works well for you. I'm not saying it isn't a good light, it was just too complex for my simple mind.

This actually is the 93g cube from marineland. I do have some programming that I gathered from a few fellow hobbyists, however I'm doing most of my programming via Apex classic. I'd be glad to share though.

I went back and forth on the 60 vs. the 93. Ended up going with the 93g, i'm just hoping it gives me enough space.
