My new 89 gallon
I am running out of space in my small 25 gallon. So looks like I am just in time with my 89 gallon. I can finally get that purple tang I always wanted.:biggrin:
Pictures of my 25 top down. I have them almost toughing each other now. http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...rch2009019.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...rch2009007.jpg Shot of my new tank still have to finish the stand and waiting for it to break in a bit more. http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...rch2009021.jpg |

Hey thats awesome! I like the dimensions of that tank. :cool:Can you give more info on whats going on with the airlines and that giant white plastic thing in the tank? Is that the overflow?
|
wow...great looking setup. My next tank is definitely going to be a cube like that! :D

Still need to finish some of the plumbing. The air line is my anti siphon and yes the white thing is my overflow its a large PVC reduction pipe that is turned upside down. Works pretty good I was going to build an acrylic one but this was easier. The tank is 36" x36" x 14" all half inch tempered with 3" euro bracing on top. I have a dart running my return flow and a 400w M/H SE in one of those 30" reflectors. Still have some things to hook up but can't wait to transfer some of my stuff. |
looks slick mang, what type of reflector is that, and did you make the hood yourself, SEXY time!

14" tall, wow. :)
But you know what, I think this is sort of the future of reefkeeping. I have a 30" tall tank right now and while I like the look of the openness, I was shocked to learn how little PAR my corals are getting at the depth of the top of the rockwork (never mind the bottom of the rockwork). To compensate means more wattage and thus higher bills. I think shallow is the way to go. :) Looking forward to seeing this one fill in. :cool: |
I was thinking frag tank originally but now I want to fill it up. I have a 60 cube that I want to put up as my main in my living room but am short of space. If I do that I will have to let go of my other two tanks. The plan is to take both my 25's down and put them in this tank, and then try to get my 60 starphire cube running in the spot my 25's are. Not sure how it will all work out, but time will tell. I think I might have to part with some tanks though I have too many. :redface:
