I found this tank today and am contemplating it very seriously. It works out to 518g. It pretty deep for a reef, but for the price, and the size, I cant really pass it up. Well, maybe I can, but!
It is 3/4'' glass ( less scratches) galvanized stand, drilled for overflows and return in the bottom. I couldnt find any defects and they will fill it before delivery for leak test.
I have planned to cut a hole in the garage/family room wall (on slab) no weight issues.
Since my new tank (inspired by Saturdays meeting) was only going to be 6' long instead of 8', I was thinking of making a black acrylic wall at 6' inside where the new overflow teeth across the top and bulkheads, spraybars and lock lines at various locations in the bulkhead wall plumbing in the end compartment, and maybe no need for a sump?????
The garage is much cooler than the current tank room, close to the service panel.
I would have to set it up and then pretty much leave it since it is 42'' tall, so that has me bugged a little. Maybe it would help break me from always rearranging things
Ideas and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Chris
