Last year I was posting a lot in this forum until this happened.
This is what it looked like before the bottom glass broke, and killed just about everything.
I was totally disheartened by the tank breaking, and said I would never get a LARGE tank again. Well, I recently had a chance to buy a 225 (72X30X24) gallon tank from a local guy that is moving, and couldn't resist. The new tank will have a 75 gallon sump, Sequence Barracuda pump for closed loop, Gen-X PCX-40 return pump, and 2 DIY (ER 8-2 clones) skimmers. Lighting will be a 6' hood with 3 250 watt 10K MH and 2 96 watt PC actinics.
This is the basic layout so far. I will take pictures of the actual tank later and post them.
The stand is being finished with a faux brown leather look.
