Sneak peek at my new 180

[Fliger]

Wow buddy that looks awesome! Good luck keepin those frags in place on BB with all those Streams. The 6200's are beasts!

Ti-Thanks!

Wiskey -Thanks! right now they are higher than I want but they are there and thats what counts for the moment . I will drop them down to 6-8 inches soon. I will also have more pictures of the equipment area today.

Cody -your funny but this is it for a while .

Jamesurq-Thanks! Yeah I like light also . My 120 had 3 250's....I also like sand but its not practical for me with this setup.

marinelife- Don't need one........I had just the single 6200 giving me a 1 inch wave across the tank in pulse mode.

David _ Thank you ! Sorry you had to come by and see the 120 in a mess before hand ......But thats okay I also had a LFS owner and half dozen others that wanted to come by before I tore it down ..........This one will decimate the 120

oh and the frags at the bottom won't be there much longer

Looks like the wrong forum to me.

thats not a sneak peak but a EYE full. Great work on the 180. I love the flow!

 

[Wiskey]

What are you running for a return pump? What GPH would you figure after head loss?

Thanks,
Whiskey

I am still using the same mag 12 from the 120 it is doing perfect now with larger plumbing . I figure it is pushing 1000gph.

Thanks Turtlespd!

Holy crap. You must have some crazy shimmer lines.

 

[clkwrk]

Yeah I love em

 

[fishypets]

I think you could use more flow and lighting

Seriously though nice job. Can't wait for the growth shots.

 

[clkwrk]

Thanks!

I can't wait to grow in the right side where I want my thicket of stags

 

[fishypets]

I was looking at that. Looks like you have a few blue tipped ones. Are the corals from this tank from your other tanks or are you starting fresh?

 

[clkwrk]

Everything is out of my outgrown 120

Very nice job! I will have to upgrade soon as well. Did you ever consider adding a Tunze Wavebox Wavemaker instead of adding so many Tunze Streams? Just curious. I use Tunze Streams in my SPS systems, however, for my next upgrade I am considering adding a Wavebox instead of more Streams.

Also, did you have any trouble moving your Powder Blue Tang from the 120 to 180? I will have to do the same thing within the next year or two as well. Keep the pictures coming!
