Art's 300 gal

[artguzman]

So for the last couple months I've been busy with the restaurants and setting this tank up on my spare time.

Tank started cycle on March 29, 2010. I dosed ammonia to speedup the process and be able to fully stock aquarium immediately after cycle finished.

Tank dimensions are 5'x4'x2'.

Still have a few automation things to setup but here some pics......

That is sweet!

I really like the suspended light canopy. It has some class..... not just a boring box.

Did you have to adjust the floor jacks after all of the weight was added?

[artguzman]

Thanks! I retrofitted 10 t5's and 2 -250w mh.
Tank/stand is still leveled! I did check the floor jacks twice and seems like there was no settling.

Who built the tank it looks very clean looking.

I ordered the tank about a year and a half ago from aquarium obsessed; it was a bit hectic because they closed a few months after and built the tank in their Canada shop. So to get it accross I had to open an account with a customs broker. The tank came out really good; the silicon work is clean.

I can't wait to put some frags in that beast! :) :P

Soon Kraylen!

art you drink a lot?

No I don't; I think I was dosing my previous tank more alcohol than what I actually drink.
Most of the bottles in the bar are tequila, a few wine and some cognac.
