Thanks buddy, awesome tank do you have a full tank shot. I would assume your hubby built that stand and canopy again i would like to see what he built this time. Even if he didnt build it I would love a full tank shot. Since I have been away you may have all ready posted this but what kind of set up are you running. I see its a 240, but lights etc???great job!!!!!!

Dockery, how much did the 240 tank stand and canopy run you? I'm interested in getting something that size one day but not sure if i want something that big or maybe a 155 bow.....
there are plenty of tanks that size and bigger around our area. I got a 300 used and my buddy got a 525. If you have not all ready I would join the nc frag group. This is a local reef club that meets once every 2-3 months and trades corals. There is also a BB and email forums where people post stuff locally for sale and trade.

Okay what can I tell you.
The rest of the tank is not finished yet. But will look better than the first tank he built me. It is made to look like a built in, it will have shelving on both sides to also hide the reactor and the chiller,
I have a 1/3 hp powercooler run by a mag 18, aqua c 240 with a mag 18; mag 24 for the return pump;
lights are 2-250 MH lights 3 ice cap 660's the bulbs are 72" so I think they are 160 watts.
it has about 400lbs of live rock with 600lbs of southdown sand and some sand from my 180.
I feed them three times a day and do a water change once a week. I dont have to but I am pretty picky about that.
I also have 400 snails.
and the tank and stand are both used
