Got my 240 ordered today. Should be delivered by the end of the month. Going to Lowes to pick up concrete for the 2x4 foot slab I am going to pour under the house. I will rest the supports on this.
 
Familyreefer,
We share home towns and an interest in sailing... Are you a member of Augusta Sailing Club???

I am just about ready to order a 220G.. Where did you order yours?

Sorry... Real busy at the LFS this weekend as well as today. Back to school tomorow. Slab still hasn't been poured as of yet. I have lined up an electrician (brother-in-law) to come by and put GFCI receptacles (4) in the wall as well as add two 20 amp breakers into the fuse box. Ordered the Sequence Dart return pump today and we have a new sump/refugium being sent in. I am waiting to see the sump before making my decision. I didn't think you guys would be interested in seeing a pic of 6 sacks of concrete!LOL Thanks for all of the encouragement! , Scott

Yes, I am a member of ASC. I sail a Morgan 22. I haven't had much time as of late though. I ordered my 220 from Star Aquatics in Evans. Thanks for the posts! When there is something worth photographing I will post them. LOL!
 
Scott,

George is definately "the Man" when it comes to supplying livestock in this area. Very knowledgable guy.

What are the dimensions of your tank?, and what is the overall volumn? I'm trying to find a 72 x 30 (depth)x 24 (tall)... price really jumps when going deep instead of tall (i.e., 72x24x30 (tall)). I really wish the manufacturers would just flip them on the side and go from there, but it's not to be.

When so you expect your tank?

Geoff

p.s. I sail a Capri 22

Sorry, no pics as of yet. I did get the electrical supplies purchased today and build the 2 x 6 foot frame for the slab. I got it tamped in and level. I have decided to keep my old stand and hood but I am considering moving the sump into the basement for a little more temp stability. I did not pour the cement because it is gettiting down to freezing tonight and want no problems with the set.
