My 150 acrylic beast

[Dk638]

This is my third tank and my first thread. I've learned a lot from reading many others tank threads, thanks to mr and it's members! The tank is 5'x2'x2' with external overflow with 2 1" drains and 1" thick walls. No more worrying about the kids cracking the tank! It has a 2" tube steel stand (gonna skin it when I get some time off).
Equipment so far:
Ati 6x54 sunpower with a 48" reefbrite
Trigger systems ruby36e sump
Reeflo dart pump
Vertex in180 skimmer
2 wp40's with dual controller
Apex controlling everything including float switches for ato
It still needs a little more cleaning so I hope to have it all cleaned up and on the stand this weekend and start building the water station.
Thanks to jaftica for finding this awesome tank and giving me advice.

The rock, hoping to get it in today, still waiting on my sump, should be here this week. With any luck I'll be filling this thing next weekend. Hope it's enough rock!

Looks great is there an overflow box?

 

[Dk638]

Overflow is external.

Awesome that's the one thing I would change about my tank if I could !!! Gonna be sweet setup!!
What sand did u use?

 

[Dk638]

Sand and rocks are from reefrocks.net.
Pretty happy with both, gave me exactly what I asked for as far as rock shapes.
Most of the base pieces have a cut flat bottom.
