bob21115s 220 cube

I finally broke down and built a stand and canopy for the 220 cube. For the last year this tank has been in the basement on a 2x4 stand with LR and my 20" Snowflake eel in it.

Since my Glass 150 SPS tank was getting really full and I like the looks of a cube tank better I moved all the livestock to the cube. The 220 is plumbed into the rest of the system in the basement. I have a total of 13 tanks about 2000 total gallons all draining into a 150 gallon sump.



Stand and Canopy
The stand and canopy are both oak veneer Plywood


Water Circulation
I had way to many powerheads in the 150. I installed a Ocean Motion 8-Way with a Reeflo Barracuda as a closed loop.

Bob you have some kick ass gear bud, i was going to say you love your tangs, but i can see you have left plenty of front section swim area. plenty of frag stumps as well, & i'll hand it to you, 2000 gal sheesh, id hate to see your total water bill. What do you do with the membrane rejected ratio by the way?

oh oh, quick pass me the tissues, Luninarcs..............fantastic!
