240G upgrade

I went with a side overflow, and beanie animal system. It is dead silent, and the only noise you hear is a slight amount from the powerheads, skimmer and return pump. My old system was quite loud due to the design that the manufacturer had decided on.

My stand is 4 feet high as we get a fair amount of kids in the office, and they loved to bang the glass on my old tank. That was why there was a jut out on the old system. Already the height under the tank is awesome for working in the sump. I did bolt the stand into stubs in the wall to prevent tip over.

I still have a tonne of finishing work on the canopy and stand, but the tank being 8 feet long is awesome! My regal tang has been loving it!

I had just upgraded to 2 radions and 2 - 4 foot 2 bulb T5 fixtures for my 125 gallon, so I added 2 more radions to this system. I would have prefered to use the new Kessil's for cost sake, but felt it would be a waste of the radions and I didn't want to mix different types of LED's.

I picked up 2 Jebao RW15's and use them with a Tunze nano and a Jebao 25 from my old system. The amount of flow compared to my 125 is very nice. The regal tang and female clownfish love to ride the streams from the pumps.

Picked up some new items and got a little more wood working done. Going with mainly softies and euphyllia.

I was lucky enough to find a firefish pair. I'm also trying a school of 9 chromis. Some people on reefcentral have had some long term success with multiple feedings per day, so I've got automatic feeders set for 5 times per day.
