Hello,
i am upgrading from my 75 gallon to a 150 gallon tank, but it’s not a standard 150. I acquired an all glass tank with glass trim and glass bracing making the tank extra heavy. It is 60”x24”x24” which is perfect for what I need.
Reason I am upgrading, my corals were growing too fast to quickly and some were already fighting for space. I was able to used most of my equipment with the exception of the Hydor powerheads with the magnetic grip. The 1/2” glass was too much for the magnet. I hade to use some of my back up marineland MJ1200 pumps.
The tank being 5’ it allowed me to keep my two Kessil 360w. I drilled the tank using a large overflow box elite box from Marine Depot, and it was a 15 min or so task. Plumbing the overflow bean animal style to a 29 gallon sump.
