220 little bro

[locito277]

Finally setting this baby up. The much more relaxed reef from its bigger sibling. Went with black sand. All dry as far as LR is concerned. Maybe not so much so as you will see. Anyhow it’s a 220 or so gallon aquarium. Eshops 300 sump with a Nyos 220 which is going nuts at the moment lol. No rush on this system although it’s inhabitants have been preselected. Lighting will be powered by 2 Radion xp30 pros and 2 XP 15s. Tank measures 72”L X 30”W X 24” H. These should be great measurements for SPS. Return is powered by a Vectra M1. There is a additional M1 which will power a manifold for the chiller and reactors. Inside their are 3 MP 40 and a gyre 250 for random water flow. Got a couple of marine blocks inside the sump for additional bacterial filtration.

Man 6 ft is where the magic starts

 

[justingraham]

Yea the magic of everything costing tripple

How much is that?
250 wait What size tank is it?
6 foot o I meant 750 sorry about the confusion.

I go five feet by 3 feet by 2 feet I have the same volume of water yet equipment stays cheaper it’s a business move for sure.
