ShooterRicks 72 gal bowfront: What I got for my 75.00$ and pics.
I cleaned up most of the major components and equipment yesterday and today and took a few quick
pics. Since I wasn't sure how all was treated before I got it I filled the tank out under our carport and will let set for leak test until Tuesday. Tomorrow night if no leaks are evident I plan on testing the pumps to make sure they all work including the wave timer and light timer. My thoughts so far are I got a whale of a deal on all this. Besides the obvious there is a 5 stage RO setup, ultraviolet sterilizer and a stand alone refugium that I am not sure I will set up yet. The sump is actually a plastic wet dry filter that I may use with no bio media and just have some particulate filtration in the trays and reserve a tray for carbon if I choose to run it. I have no idea yet how the recirculating skimmer works or was set up. There may be room with some partitions added to the sump to have a small refugium in it but I doubt it. Pics below of the score.
