210 Gallon SPS Aquarium

[mkareef]

Well, Here are some pictures of my 210 gallon aquarium. Its built into the wall, with a bar in front of it. Nothing better than a couple beers after work starring off into a reef

Let me know what you think. I will post more pictures soon!

Very, very nice! Really looks natural. The skull isn't my taste but to each his own.

Tank looks great!

Lol can't wait to see the outcome on the hairdo. Maybe grow it a reverse sunset beard. Nice tank!

You should do stags down the middle of the skull for a mohawk! That would be sweet! Looking good so far!!

Amazing tank!
Quick question though, are you using an internal overflow box or is your tank drilled?

Filtration System:
100 Gallon Sump that as you can see from the pictures also have coral growing in it. Calcium Reactor, Two PinPoint Controllers One for inside the reactor and one for inside the tank. Kalk is dripped at night to keep PH from dropping.
I also have a Deltec 902A that is going to be set up this coming week. But the system has been skimmerless for years.

Flow
On my returns I have three sea swirls ran by a Snapper pump and 5 K4 power heads along with a tunze wave box.

Any questions feel free to ask!

The tank is not drilled, when I wanted to go to 210 gallons I didn't want reef ready as it takes up to much room in the tank. At that time I was scared to drill the tank so I put an overflow box on. I do wish I did drill it.

I don't grow cheato at this time, although there is a refug hooked up it is empty right now.

I do have a DSB in the tank along with in the 100 gallon sump. There is also about 100 or so pounds of live rock in the sump.
