I have been a MH VHO with supp LED guy since I started. After seeing many successful SPS tanks with only LED's I am going that route. I have 4 Radion Pro 2's that I will be starting out with.

Here is a shot of my old 90 gallon. Going for mostly sps and angels

I am just going to picture dump if you have any questions lmk: Enjoy


















Needed a bigger customer overflow













Still have lots to do including a 50 g frag tank and cord management columns for display wrap etc. I am missing pictures of some steps for sure, and a good friend helping me along the way!

Specs:
220g Marineland display
60g EA custom overflow
2 x 100g barrels ( one barrel is online with live water, the second is for RO water) I transfer it over to the 1st barrel after a water change, and I want to use it as a top vs topping off straight from the RO unit. You go through filters faster.)
Custom overflow
2 mp40's
3 x 400w MH 20k Radium bulbs
2 x Reefbrite XHO's blues
Vextra L1 running the manifold and return for the display
iwaki pump from my old 90g used on the water change system.
Currently have dosers for Alk and Ca but want to get a cal reactor soon
Reef Octopus Diablo Skimmer
BRS 6 stage ro unit
BRS reactor for carbon and gfo

Great looking build so far!

 

[dca22anderson]

This looks great! Love the filtration room!

 

[dca22anderson]

Love this set up! Can’t wait till your sticks start to grow tall like your last tank!

Wish I had a basement/room to hide sump/electronics etc. great job on that. Looking forward to see more! I have a 220 as well, focused on Carpet Nems and softies. Are there any centerpiece angels you're looking at adding?

I have a few in mind, but I would love a yellow belly Regal , Goldflake , or Black Bandit Angelfish.

Display Progress 3/5/18.

Tank cycled from April - June 2017. Added my first SPS and fish in June 2017.

 

[Teknik777]

Hoping I can achieve the same level of amazingness in the 220 that I did with the 90g. Shot of Trigger in my old 90g, don't worry I have another one in my 220!
