180G Waterfall Tank Build

[Goldleaf Reef]

I tried to Buy two off a Petco Last year as they remodeling. But I put the Idea in an employee's head at the store that they would be cool to own , and She con-ed the Owner into selling them to her.. She put Afrcian Cichlids in them..

I am happy you got the Hook up " The possibilities"

2 Tangs in the top (100G) and 2 in the bottom (80G).

I'm not really worried about jumpers as I have never run a canopy or top and have only had 1 jumper. Hopefully it stays that way. Fish will not be able to get into the bottom tank from the top because there will be a screen over the bulkheads.

oh, ok i understand jnarowe

 

[edwing206]

thanks for clearing that up.

 

[clintrandall]

Yeah, I figured, but it was funny to think about them all migrating south!

 

[GSMguy]

its only 1 inch holes so most fish like the tangs wont fit thru the holes anyway

[edwing206]

Great thread Ryan it looks like you got alot of interest.

Hope it goes smooth for you.

Mabey when your done I can donate something to the tank so I can see it in person.

 

[GSMguy]

yes cant wait this is the coolest tank build

 

[NaClH20NMYVEIN]

No donations necessary for admission

Here is the lower tank most of the way done. I have a number of corals and frags that are only currently in the tank waiting for our next local swap. The light hangers come in Friday then the MH will be up!
