Pics of our new 140g!!!

[sytanek]

Well as most people know, we have been working ever so slowly to get a bigger tank setup. Well, finally have it close to running and wanted to share a pic or two. The tank isn't completely finished, as Joe is coming over on Sunday to finish the plumbing. Thus you will see the water level isn't all the way to the top. The tank has existing live rock, dead sand, and a couple softies that were on a piece of rock from one of the other tanks.

Tanks a bit blue atm, running 3 400w 20k's, but they are getting swapped out this weekend for the 3 400w hamilton 14k's, and 2 72" VHO Actinics, and moonlight LED's.

Gotta fix the right door on the left hand side, the hinge broke and needs to be replaced.

Good lookin' tank.

140gal? Sorta oddball, what are the dimensions?

 

[sytanek]

72x18x24 Some sites say a 135, some say a 140. Either way, doesn't matter to me. lol

The stand and canopy were in pretty rough shape when we picked them up originally, but they turned out pretty decent. Have some handles for the canopy doors, but debating whether or not to put them on.

Hey Brannon if you need a cabinet specialist to adjust the doors on the stand. The left door looks like it belongs in Italy next to the leaning tower of Piza.....roflmao

My old tank is looking pretty darn good, good luck with it and hope you have as much fun as i did with it.

[MIKE ALERS]

it does look good specially in person.cant wait to see it finished.

 

[bluerug]

No hard feeling mike, its just that i had no idea that i would be able to get a much bigger tank than my previous one, my bad and i apologize for not selling it to you. But maybe you can get my 300 in the future if i plan on upgrading from there which iam sure i would want to, and if its ok with the parents i plan on doing that.

 

[MIKE ALERS]
