    Hello Salty Freinds,
    So, I could not hold off any more.
    My Tank was too Small!

    I got the urge to change and increase my water Volume over the weekend.
    I found a Used Tank in the paper.
    123x70x70cm (4 Feet long, 2,30 feet wide, and 2,30 feet high)
    600 Liter (160 Gallon) Setup with overflow in the mittle of the Tank.
    The Sump is another 100 Liter (26 Gallon) Tank without walls.

    I spent the Weekend changing everything to the new Tank.
    I hope you like it.
    Here is a Picture of the Control Panel, the Tank and a Close up of the tank.

    more Pictures will Follow as it develops.

    Love the Emperor Angel, I have one that I had to catch, he was just picking on all my corals. Even was eating my high end chalices and acans....good luck with him, I wish mine had better manners.

    Hi Betowned,
    He's been with me for over a year now (I know the old tank was too Small).
    I have not noticed him picking on the Corals.

    But thanks for the info...I'll keep an Eye on him....

    Hi Steve,
    I'd love too but the Rack is empty now. I sold them all today to my local dealer.

    Sorry

    no worries
    I would settle for a description of what you had fragged, and thus sold to the dealer
