Okay this is my first thread of a large tank or a planned build. I currently have a 75, 55 and 40 breeder plumbed into a 100 G rubbermaid sump. I have been aquiring equipment and livestock in prep for a "bigger" tank, I will be taking all tanks off line when I set up the 220, as I have had some problems w/ flatworms and redbugs, the MOST IMPORTANT thing I want to do is start this tank right. I have close to 250 # LR in my tanks and it has been recommended to take it all out and let it set in the sun for a day or two, to kill everything. I wanted to use some of my sand but am unsure, I have treated for redbugs and they are gone, but the 55 and 40 which are downstairs have them, 75 is upstairs fed by a Gen X 4, I will at some time make the 75 a eel tank, but for now I will leave water for my Trigger and Grouper, as well as a few other fish that will not make it to the 220.
