Red Sea Max E260 Build

Recommended Posts

I decided to move to an AIO style tank for various reasons. At first I thought about Innovative Marine, but by the time you piece all those together, you're already at the same price as a red sea system, so thats where I went. I decided on the Red Sea Max E-260, 70 gallon (including rear). Here is my build process for anyone interested in these.

My expectations for this tank, mainly for the red sea tank reputation were met, plus some. These tanks are incredible in both design and quality. They seem pricey at first when you're looking at them online for the price and size, but they are such high quality that I believe them to be very well priced for what you get. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a nice tank.

If you're in your 30's and not already a professional furniture builder, you're not doing it right (or your rich) haha.

Looks very sharp!  Any thoughts on how to contain the jumpers?

 

 

I have the innovative marine rimless clips and 1/4" clear net from brs now. I just need to get to lowes and get the screen top.
