220.6 waterbox build

Vrsache · Sep 20, 2025

Hi everyone
This is going to be my first large saltwater tank. I had a 24g cube a couple years back but never anything as big as the waterbox tank i now own. Looking for any advice on setup or care since im fairly new to saltwater. I want to do a mixed reef with mostly sps and some lps.

Off to a good start! Hopefully you'll be adding more rock. What lights are you going with?

Looking good! Following...
Double check level & keep rocks far enough away from glass for easy cleaning.

How's your tank coming? I like the look of how your aqua scape started.

definitely more rock!

Otherwise pretty open ended question, I'd probably wander over to some of the build threads for similar tanks to get inspiration on powerheads, filtration, etc, and model your tank after something you like.
