Hey everyone !! So I got back into the hobby and grabbed a 40 breeder stocked from my aunt for a good price she couldn’t keep it where she lived anymore . I set it up let it run for a few weeks then I got that urge to go deeper and the addiction began again I checked into the all in one units from Red Sea I was hooked on the lx 300 but they were on back order and I am super impatient . I decided to grab a new 40 breeder from petco ( dollar a gallon sale ) then I needed a stand which I was convinced on building one pics will be posted ! Here’s what I got

system
40 breeder
2 coralia wave makers
Eshopps rs-100
Eshopps eclipse L over flow kit ( I know over kill its for future build )
Max flow 607 return pump
Eshopps axium x160 skimmer
Viperspectra leds

live stock
Various coral hammer candy cane polyps etc
Angel fish
2Picasso clowns
Hippo tang
Hawaii yellow tang
Cleaner shrimp

Pictures will show before the dyi stand process and the final display !

Thank you guys for taking the time to read this and see my progress .

Welcome and good luck,

I'm in the process of upgrading to a 40B myself and love seeing similar builds to what I am looking to do
