You are the tank builder I look up to

[@ReefingwithO]

Saw this tank at Reefapalooza Orlando and it was awesome!

[@ReefDudes]

she is a beauty!

[@ericjohnson3424]

I setup the G2 440 about 4 months ago. Solid, well designed tank.

[@ReefDudes]

Love to hear it! Waiting for one more part so I can re use my return pump then I can start the swap !

[@Pontiuspilate666]

I'd start off fresh, nothing better than starting up a new tank full of stuff that is all new to you! Nice tank man, cant wait to see what it looks like filled!

[@bayarea_reef]

I love this tank, the stand is so beefy! And the silicon job is super nice.

[@ReefDudes]

@@bayarea_reef it really is!

[@focustronic831]

exciting new build!! can't wait to see what gadget you will use on this one!

[@CJSAQUARIUMS]

Keep the coral! Instant reef when you start the tank you can always exchange stuff after the fact.

[@ReefDudes]

True that

[@skeptics_reef5575]

Love the look of the Nyos system, but at 3:49 is that the lamination on the door bubbling?

[@ReefDudes]

@@skeptics_reef5575 that’s just salt creep from my fish splashing. They were sitting there for a a good week. Doors are perfect

[@whatthereef]

I like how the nyos tanks have that lip covering the bottom of the tank

[@ReefDudes]

me too, its a nice change up for a unique look

[@503magic]

This is the exact tank I’m looking 👀 into upgrading from my 20gal

[@ReefDudes]

That’s a big upgrade! It’s a beautiful tank. I can’t wait to finish getting it installed

[@allfather5972]

So cool, I got G2 300 about a month ago. Great tank! BTW, you can fit Smart Reef Smart Roller S, fits really nicely into sock section if you remove the glass separating the return chamber. Only thing needed is to cut the main return tube, diameter of the main return is the same as the intake in Smart Roller.

[@allfather5972]

Sorry, sedimentation chamber (not return :D). Super easy using Red Sea sump modification kit.

[@ReefDudes]

@@allfather5972 Thanks for the tips!

[@EugeneRu777]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@8bitflea]

They need to update the sump because it doesn’t support rollers.

[@ReefDudes]

I’ll do some experimenting once I get it running. May be a way :)

[@8bitflea]

@@ReefDudes that’s the only thing keeping me from buying one. Hopefully you’ll figure something out or pass the info to Nyos for a 2.0. Thanks 🙏

[@Coralhead_]

The Clarisea Rollers definitely fit in the sumps

[@allfather5972]

Smart Reef Smart Roller S fits nicely. Only thing needed is to remove one glass (sedimentation chamber), and cut the main drain. The main drain diameter is the same as the roller intake.

[@robbybostick4480]

​@@Coralhead_ do you have the Clarisea 3000 in yours?

[@ajj_gamer]

cycle your tank with coral. yes huge benefits. #jakeadams. def toss some in, i call them throw away frags.

[@ReefDudes]

Very valid points. Can always pull them out later !
