Sorry but your are exactly wrong, it's not 838 gallons "exactly". Exact volume is 837 gallons 3 quarts and 8.73 ounces + or - 0.01 ounces.

the site i used didnt give me quarts an ounces :p it gave me gallons only LOL i guess it rounds up

I'm sure they'll get really aggressive if you don't feed them for a day or two lol.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
This is a terrible thing to say, although the devil inside me is making jokes about it right now...
Like "you could throw a free goodwill jacket in there and watch them fight to the death for it."
Or "You could give them a coupon for 'two hot's and a cott' at the local shelter."

Awesome tank! WOW. I'd really like to have one myself but my 180 is sometimes a pain to clean and maintain. I'd hire a homeless man to clean it! after thorough training and such of course....

It finally happened. Sep is a mod. How did I miss the ceremony? Was there a ceremony? We need a ceremonial thread to celebrate!!!

I'm picking it up this weekend
!! I've decided to go with two skimmers, one is a custom built warner marine xl300 (not on their website, special order only). From what I've heard, this thing is a beast. I guess it better be for $2300.00. I'm still undecided about the other. I'm thinking maybe a bubble king supermarine 300 or an ATB XL. I've decided not to skimp on filtration with this tank, so I guess you can say I'm going all out with it. Here's some pics of the skimmer and tank...

lol, my wife would divorce me if I brought a tank that size in the house. She thinks the 150 is too big.
So I have to live the good life though you. Can't wait to see it up and running!

LOL! At first my wife was like "WHERE IN THE HEL* ARE YOU GOING TO PUT THAT THING!" but after a little sweet talking and TLC she was all for it.
