Hello all. My name is Jonathan and i FINALLY decided to make an account after 3-4 years of just creeping around this site. I am 28 years old from Connecticut. I work as a civil engineer designing highways in order to feed my two hobbies (Reefing and Cars).

I have a 72 gallon bowfront with a 30 gallon sump that has been set up for about 3 years now.
Previous to that i had a fish only 60 gallon salt water tank when i was 18, but due to lack of funds in college it only lasted about a year.

Yesterday i purchased a 260 gallon tank (4'x 4' x 2') and decided I would like to document the build on here and tap into the vast knowledge of the forum in setting up and purchasing equipment.
