well it's time for a new thread , i recently sold my 130" tank to jcmcown , so i could remodel my living room. the new tank is another glasscages tank i had built to my specs. it is 66" long 24" wide 31" tall with starphire glass. the tank is being built into a full wall entertainment system, with tons of staorage space, multiple levels and bookcases. to maximize space in my living room. the equipment on this system will be cut way down to cut back on energy consumption. lighting is two 400w ushio 20k, with lumenarc reflectors, also two 160w vho supplement. water movement is coming from 2 vortech mp40w's water return will be from a mag7. 75g sump which will house a msx 250a skimmer, and a deep sand bed. calcium and ph will be maintained by a pacific coast dual chamber calcium reactor. the tank will be a full reef again predominantly sps with lps blended throughout for movement, not sure on fish list right now. i will be using 90% of the rock from the old system so , it will have a $*!@load of rock for a completely diferent style of aquascaping than the last system. the old sump room in the garage will be removed with simply a brute can for water mixing for water changes, and a single peice of 1inch pvc with a ball valve and hose fitting for easy water removal . like i said i will be posting pics tonight or tomorrow of the build.
