Default Epic Build, The 750 monster
And so it begins, I recently scored a screaming deal on a complete 750 gal FOWLR set-up (1000 gal total volume including sump), included all equipment and even 30+ very nice fish. All the specifics will follow, but first better get pics up before the lynch mob strikes.

Still wrapped from the trip home, but this


Is going to go here


The tank measures 96lx60wx30h 1" cellcast acylic.

Don't blink, this will go quick as all the livestock along with 400lbs sand and 700lbs LR are currently in temporary holding facilities and need to get back to the big tank ASAP. Demo for the install will start this afternoon.

Can we get a fish list?

This is very exciting

and if it doesn't work out the tank will make a very nice hot tub.

Good luck

Oh nice!! I see NO shame in a 750 gallon FOWLR! I wouldn't mind a big FOWLR, but there is no part of me that wants a big reef!
