Help me find a brand / tank

Fwiw,
This is the powerhead I selected to use in my IM 40. Many recommend around 25X the tank volume in flow, which would be 1,000 gph. This Tunze Nanostream can also be controlled by an Apex, which was a requirement for me.

I mentioned an MP 40 also, which would have to be turned down a good bit, but could also work.

Turbelle Nanostream 6040 (53 - 1,190 GPH)

German-made Tunze powerheads are one of the best high flow powerheads available. They are smaller and can be hidden in the aquarium easier than competing brands. Tunze pumps can be configured in a wide range of positions to target any area of the tank. For aquariums from 5.3 - 132 gallons Flow...

There’s a video about how to tune the Herbie. It’s not complicated, but it does need to be done right, so it’s quiet.

now that i'm thinking about it.... seems I did drill a 40 breeder for a bean animal .. ha... totally forgot about it.. and yea.... it was a silent overflow... crazy

And I do have an apex.
So ... with the tank I'll be using a nice Maxpect Duo skimmer (DC so i can tune it down), MP40, either my Sicce or Jab DC return pump, Tunze ATO, the mentioned Apex (orange lable), 250w SE ReefBrite MH for light, and... well I guess thats the nuts and bolts.
I even have 40 lbs of fresh sand I never used still in the box it shipped in from BRS haha.

I saw this post and I thought the same thing. External also!! Only way to go in my opinion.

Fwiw, you can buy the stand from another vendor, as it appears the aluminum APC model stand that matches the 40 gal tank is out of stock at Marine Depot.

Just for clarification you mean APS? or is there a C

 

[ichthyoid]

Yes it’s APS, sorry.

The APC was a throwback to military grade rounds (armor piercing capped), mea culpa.

I meant the stand that goes with this tank here -

Nuvo EXT 40 Mini APS Stand (Black)

appreciate the heads up.. never used a gate valve before in a build

Oh yeah. Youre gonna love a gate valve. More pricey, but well worth it.
