Talking SHF's new 220g reef tank (Pics)

Well, my wife & I decided to convert my sw fish room back into our spare bedroom for 2 Korean homestay students who are coming in Dec.

The bad news is that I have to tear down & transfer out 300g of sw tanks, sumps & refugiums.

Bye, bye smaller reef tanks.



Hello new 220 gallon reef tank with 72 gallon sump



Side view of the sump/plumbing.



Front view of new sump/plumbing (Thanks TomR )



Big thanks goes out to Chris, Rippin, Fkshiu, yvr, and Fishbreath for helping move the tank & equipment over. Also to DeepRed for selling me the system for a great price. And to my friend Chin_Lee for his help and especially TomR who spent Saturday here helping me to plumb in my tank.


Anthony

The seahorses will have my refugium section (2' long by 18" wide) section of the 72g sump to live in until I either set up the 90g reef/seahorse refugium tank again in the living room or a 20" cube tank for them.

Yeah, it's good to have so many helpful friends who can lend a hand when needed Literally couldn't have done it without them.
