Just brought this home last night

[light10977]

It is a 155 Gallon AGA Bowfront. I got a 72" coralife pro with 3 metal halide. Got a skimmer and sump but plan on getting rid of them and making me a nice refuge. I have a picture of my wifes freshwater 55 gallon tank next to it for reference of how big this thing is. (It was very heavy also compared to the 55)

Looks good, but that room could use a couple more crosses.

.... I hope in front of that window is not the final placement.

Nope, I have a 55 saltwater tank I have to get rid of before my wife will let me set it up. So I am thinking maybe around October I will get around to setting it up.

she will tire real soon at looking at an empty tank i bet it wont wait till oct lol

Very nice!!!!!! Any water in it yet?? Have your fired the lights as well?

 

[light10977]

Fired the lights and they work well. No water going in it until the wife gets tired of seeing it empty(unleashed) or I sell my 55. I plan on resealing it just for security. But so far everything the guy said about it has been dead on. I am hoping my wife gets tired of seeing an empty tank because I really want to get started on this. But at the same time I really haven't looked into selling my 55 because of late nights at work. Maybe in a few months. Only bad thing is we are moving around October, so I may just let it sit until then anyway, but who knows what I will do if my wife lets me spend more money.

Well it will sit dry for about 2 years. I am heading back to Korea. So maybe after I get back.

im sorry to hear your not able to set it up as far as sitting dry for 2 yrs i reccomend resealing it when you get back the silicone can go bad after siting dry for that long of a period

 

[kingspade]

if you decide to sell it due to going to korea i will DEFINATELY buy it. let me know if you decide not to keep it

 

[light10977]

no intentions of selling it. I will be resealing it when I get back from Korea. I planned on resealling the tank since it was used anyway. I have always heard better safe than sorry on tanks this big.
