[tendar]

So just how big of a tank are you running for your reef adn dimensioins would be cool also.

[tendar]

My current tank is a 90 gall Lee-Mar 48Lx18Wx24H LPS reef with out overflow all hang on for now.

[Chuck S]

Hmm lets see

120 gallon 48x24x24
55 gallon 48x12x18
29 gallon 30x12x18

[BLUESMAN]

I have an 80g with an 55g rear sump,does that mean I have an 135g?Nope I did'nt think so!!I'm looking at a larger tank for the future.

[YodaHart]

Not jet but that is the original plan http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif,but I have second though this day,seeing how many animals are lost because some "hobbyst" dont wont to listen advice make me sick.Customer (mostly novice)usually wont angels or tangs and,off course, colourfull corals and if I wont to make money I must order that animals.So I get beatifull angels,aclimate them to aquarium life(month or two of job),sell them to customer and they come back for 7 days and wont new specimen http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif.So my new plan is public aquarium,where I can have all fishes or coralls which I wont without need to sell them.
But I am short for few 100 000 $ http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[tendar]

Yes the fish buseniss is a tough one some times. I worked part time a LFS fro a 1.5 years and see so sad things some times.
Looks like next weeks poll will http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif be how many tanks so you have.

[Katspaw]

Just the 225 gallon, 410 system with sump refugium and stuff attached. I gave up my 90 gallon, just a little tooo much to chew right now.

Tracey

[Flatlander]

Just my 225 also. And no sump. http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Chuck S]

Tracey wasn't the 90 at your shop? So you no longer have a reef tank at work?

[Katspaw]

Chuck, both tanks are at my shop. the 255 is in the office/ customer waiting room, and the 90 was in the lunchroom. I had a few fish and some corals, but moved them over to the 255. Making a total of 11 fish in the 255, none will get all that big so I still have room to add more if I want later. I was worried that having two tangs in that tank, but they don't even notice the other one. The Domino noticed the purple tang when he went in, but the tang, although smaller, put the domino in his place very fast. And here I was worried about having two tangs together. The sea world is such a mysterious place isn't it.

[Chuck S]

Interesting I always thought that nice tank you did was in your house http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[kevinpo]

4 - 115 gal 96"x20"x16'
1 - 550 gal 96"x44"x33.5"
1 - 90 gal 48"x18"x23"
12 - 13 gal
2 - 200 gal cubes 48"x48"x20" to be delivered in 5 days or less.
= a lot of glass to clean http://www.reeftalk.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Plus 170 gal in various sumps.

Regards,
Kevin

[Katspaw]

No Chuck, my house would not be able to handle the weight of that tank. The floor at work has a 6 inch thick cement floor. And that way I didn't have to shore up the floor. This was the most logical way of doing things. And I get to enjoy the tank all day long.

Tracey

[coralsandbar]

Wow! Where to start?

55 gallon
20 long
18 amiracle (work tank)
7 gallon bowfront (aipitasia tank by choice for berghia)

and soon 2-200 gallon tanks in 1-2 weeks!!!

[greg c]

225g gallon
72"L x 30"W x 24"T

[Mojoreef]

Well the wife said I was only allowed to have one tank in the house...but she never said how big, lol
I have a 650 gallon L- Shaped tank, Dementions....hmmm...well 2 eight foot faces one 3 feet front to back and the other 2 feet, with a 170 gallon sump and 2 55 gallon refugiums.

Mike

[MichaelD]

holy cow Mojo that is one killer tank. Who made it. that's the best tank itself that I've ever seen. the L thing is unbelevable.

[Mojoreef]

Thanks for the kind words Michael. I haven really updated the website with this tank totally but have been plucking away at it. The tank was made by a good friend for me (he is a custom builder).
Thanks again

[David Grigor]

I think for most of us a better poll would be what size tank have you not run before ?

Show Tank progressed from 45g, 90g, 190g, 320g over the last 7 years.

Also had ancillary tanks of 14g, 30g, 37g, 40g, 50g, 75g on and off over the years with as max of 4 up and running at a time......

Now only ancillary tanks I want are ones that are plumbed into the main system. Just don't want to mess with multiple tank parameters anymore....

[fish4fun]

180 gal
110 gal

gave both up

Now going to set up a 300 gal.

[Flatlander]
