This is what our tank looks like at the moment with the coral sand and other equipment. We have got Fluval Roma 125 for our tank, the official fluval black/silver cabinet, Fluval U3 filter, Fluval M150 heater, and a Tunze 9002 as the protein skimmer.
 |
| This is our Tunze 9002 as our protein skimmer, It took a bit of tank and background modification to get it to fit- note that we've filed down the lip on the tank, as well as cutting out a large section of the background. |
 |
| This is the protein skimmer with the top on- a very tight fit between the tank edge and lighting! |
 |
| The left side of the tank lid- it's difficult to see here, but the front-most panel has been cut about an inch shorter length-ways, so that the lighting unit can be pulled nearer to the front in order to fit the skimmer bowl in! |
 |
Here you can see where we had to cut the lid of the tank for the protein skimmer cup to fit.
It is amazing the amount of things that you can do with a Dremel- excuse the rough edges... we'll sand them down at some point! |
 |
| Tank with the lights on but no sand. You can see all the equipment in this photo though- heater on the left, protein skimmer at the far back right, and the filter just in front of that. |
 |
| This is the hole that we cut with a Dremel to fit the protein skimmer. |
