Drac's 210 acrylic

Upgrade time
I've had my 125 over a year now and the wife said I could go bigger, I found a 210 used about an hour away and the build was on.

if its a standard 72x24x30 then your gonna love the dimensions on the new tank. i had a 125g set up for almost 10yrs and went to a 220g and love it (some ppl call the dimensions of a 72x24x30 a 210g some call it a 215g and some like myself call it a 220g, they are all the exact same tank lol)

but i loved the extra space and height of the new tank...good luck with your upgrade..

Not quite, its 7 ft x 2ft x maybe 2ft tall can't remember and leaves about an inch on each side of the hole it's fitting in and I love it already lol

started drilling some holes in the floor. I'm using bulkheads to help hold some of the weight of the pipe and it's a much cleaner look.

I just wish I could fit the nut on the bottom of the bulkheads they don't stick through enough.

cleaned a bucket of sand and got some rock in the tank to start cycling

put the light over the tank and can't get two of the bulbs to fire... a problem I recently had with another 6ft MH fixture. ...

haha didn't think about skimming just this tank and had to rig this up but it's doing great running on a mag 9.5 I had been using for water changes
