300 gallon Starphire Tank

[shana]

What company should I order a new tank from?

I want to order a tank made out of Starphire glass. The measurements I am looking for are 72"L x 31" H x 30" W.

Thanks for your responses,
Shana

You might get more responses in the general reef forum. Or you might try the ORCA forum.

This forum doesn't get much traffic.

I think I am the only one left in the ghost town.

I would recommend Aquariums for you.

Dang, I was thinking there was one for sale:lol:

You don't want a large tank. Your just window shoppin

And anyway you still gotta finish the tile in your bathroom

Just grout left to do

I'm planning on replacing the 125g with the 180g
The 180g was going to be the "big" tank
The 125g will become a frag/fuge

Addition won't be finished for 2 years at the rate we are going
So big tank is 2 years away

 

[tstone]

Cool
Grout is easy.
180 is a big tank. lot of lighting, pump, skimmer etc.
Plenty of room also.

2 years seems so far away but in reality its not.

I already have the lights & skimmer - I think the 250's are almost a little too much for the 125g. But Bec has 250's on her tank - but she has more SPS then I do

I'm going to upgrade the pump to boost flow - it will use 1/2 the power of the existing pump
Plus add the 2nd Tunze that I bought over a year ago

What are you going to keep in the 1980? The same livestock?

I am running a 400 over my cube!

 

[Scuba_Dave]

Yeah, same livestock

I'm sticking with mostly softies, some LPS, and Caps for SPS
Plus I have a hydno that just keeps growing - I keep it away from other stuff

The 125 is viewable on 3 sides, but only 18" front to back
So the 180g will give me another 2-3" depth
and another 6" front to back

I'm not sure what the big tank will be...time will tell

Dave when are yuo going to get a 300g tank?

 

[Scuba_Dave]

300g is too small!!

well not really...

 

[tstone]

300 is about right actually.

 

[Scuba_Dave]

I actually want a 10' tank for the addition. I think the length will really make it stand out. Maybe 30-36" front to back & 30" tall

That comes out to about 468- 561g
I think the 36" front to back is needed

Still looking
