Thats alot of live sand lol

 

[Dflo]

Yeah it is lol. Luckily lfs does bulk pricing so will be $1 lb for pink Fiji. He is also delivering 200 gals of water since rodi system won't be up and running at first

 

[jay0705]

Thats not bad at all

 

[Dflo]

I was afraid to ask delivery charge but better than thought. Saltwater goes for about 1.50 gallon here (Northern VA/DC area) doing for 1.75 gal including delivery. Also pumps into tank

 

[jay0705]

Thats not bad at all. Especially that much

 

[Dflo]

Definitely worth it. I have four 5 gal containers and saving some gallon jugs to top off rest and sump

 

[jay0705]

Ah good good. Well thought out

 

[Dflo]

I'm slowly learning lol

 

[jay0705]

Lol slowly is key in this game

 

[Dflo]

Learning that slowly too lol

 

[jay0705]

Ha ha its why I have multiple tanks. Add fish slowly, np spread out over 4 tanks thats a fish a wk lol

 

[Dflo]

Lol true. I did just pick up an emperator angel a bit ago for the 220. He will be in quarantine at lfs until it's set up in couple weeks

 

[jay0705]

Ah very nice. I've never really looked into the big angels. I'am more of a tang man

 

[Dflo]

I do have a hippo and yellow. Prob will add an Achilles as well in about a month. This is first large angel I've had

 

[jay0705]

Ah very cool. I have a naso and yellow w a hippo in my future. I would love a purple but there just too similar to the yellow

 

[Dflo]

when I bought the 220 the guy had a Naso, Sailfin, Hippo and powder blue but didn't have anywhere to keep them so turned them in to LFS for credit

 

[jay0705]

Ah, yea if taken care of there long lived fish

 

[Dflo]

I stopped at a lfs in Richmond va area couple weeks ago and he has sailfin in his 1200 display tank that is 22 years old

 

[jay0705]

Wow, tank that size its totally possible.

 

[Dflo]

Very impressive tank. Had a male vlamangi tang that was over a foot long
