Salty Critter

I should have my Hammerhead coming from Dan today. :) He said he just sent two out to Columbus Monday. Must have been yours. :) Stepping up from a Dart as I am in the process of adding tanks to the one system, and I know the Dart wont be able to keep up.
 
Yea if Verper hadn't offered me such a good deal on the new one he has, Dan would have been shipping three to Columbus on Monday.
I would love to make it up there some time to meet Dan and see his place in person. They can add me to their fan list.

What are you doing that you need 3 hammerheads?

I would guess one for return and two for CL ??
 
Yeah Cavey just upgraded to the Big Tank Club :smokin:
New 240g I believe...
Either way that's still gonna be a lot of flow.
BTW, I agree, can't say enough about Dan and his crew @ Salty!

I was wondering the same thing..... That's going to be a lot of water movement!

Yea and his elec bill for just those 3 Hammerheads are going to equal like 2/3rds of my bill to run my entire 600gal per month...

350w X 3 = 1050w x 24hr = 62.00 per month @ $0.08 per KWH...

Wow that will be a lot of flow! Sounds like a great SPS only tank. Come over to the Darkside!:strooper:


I am thinking about leaving the dark side ;)
 
thinking.... you've been saying that for a while now.

I've got some sinularia for you when you are ready.
 
I do not think I will be that advanced. Just a big ol tank of purple mushrooms for me :)
 
thought you just got rid of all those?

sorry to hujack you thread Brian :)

Just do a big rose garden with some hammers, fungia and zoanthids. the thought has tempted me also
 
Ok, to answer some of the questions.

Yes I just got a 240 Gal. tank that has 13 holes drilled in the back. 4 that are 2" over-flows and 2 that are 2" CLS. There are 5 1" returns and 4 1" returns for the CLS.
The fish room is going to be set up in the basement right below the display. That is also where the two CLS pumps are going. So for what I got figured I will only be getting about 4500 gph on each of them. I haven't figured out how many ports inside the tank I'm going to run on them either. Has for the return pump for the display, it will also be hooked up to the two 29 gal tanks I just drilled that will be sitting on the same stand right below the 240. One will be a seahorse &pipe fish tank and one will be an Angler tank. Plus I plan to run skimmer off of it and will put a bleeder valve off of it going right back into the refugium.
I plan to run 2" drains right into the basement and going to run 1.5 back up and reduce to 1" at the tank. The CLS lines will all be 1" except for the riser's which will be 3/4".
I will get some pictures of the tank posted. I have had to do some cleaning on it and removed the blue paint off the back. I couldn't believe how bad vinegar and dead Coraline algae could smell. But the difference in the tank is night and day.
And for those of you who haven't seen or heard the description of the tank it is 8'x2'x2' 3 sided Starfire Glass with Euro Bracing.

Is there a way to get my Word Doc. drawing on to here?
