210 Gallon (Update Post # 40)

Purchased a new home and knew it to be easier to setup a new tank and transition everything over, than to breakdown and move 3 tanks. So I'm breaking down my 92 & 150 and setting up a 210 (6' x 2' x 29"). The 125 was moved. The tank was purchased brand new and is Aqueon's pre-drilled. Here's a few photos. Not much to look at at the moment. I'll be posting more when time permits.

The stand & canopy are custom built by a professional cabinet maker. The stand measures 36" tall by 25" front to back. There are 4 large openings, 2 for front access and 1 large door on each side. I'm using a 75 gallon as the sump/refugium. Three Vortech MP-40's are being used. One on each side and 1 in the rear.

nice looking tank from what I can see... is that a naso?

 

Thanks. 12" Male Naso Vlamingii.

 

Very nice; congrats on the upgrade. As noted in the other thread on a 210, if the dimensions are in fact 6x2x2, it is really a 180 gallon. Although those are still nice dimensions for a tank, so no worries there

Looking forward to seeing it fully stocked!

 

The tank is 72" x 24" x 29", to be exact. =) I'll post exact dimensions, rather than relative. =)

 

Yep we solved that problem. There is a 7' and 6' version of the 210. the 6 footer is 6" taller.

 

the picture is of your 125? Very nice tank! Looking forward to seeing your new 210. What are you planning on keeping in it?

 

man that Naso is huge!!

Nice tank buddy

 

The photos are the 210. Haha. =) The majority of fish and coral from my 150 & 92.

 

Thanks! =)
