When I first moved to Florida my initial intention was to assemble a 500-gallon reef system for our new house, thatâ€[emoji769]s right go larger than the previous tank. So, during the construction phase of my new custom 500-gallon tank I installed a 90-gallon system temporarily to house some of the live stock I bought with me from New York.


The new 500 was built of Diamante glass for HD like clarity and measured 96â€Lx36â€Wx37â€H. Shortly after its delivery I knew I did not want this beast because of its size. Toying around with the 90 I realized that the height of the 90 was comfortable for me at 25½ inches and anything higher than 27 inches would make life difficult. I also had to take into consideration that I would not have access from the rear of the tank. I knew that my arms would not reach the bottom of the tank at a height of 37 inches. Also it would make it very inconvenient when placing and moving rock and corals. If I wanted to place something diagonal toward the back I was going to have major issues accomplishing that task.


This was my first mistake – I knew that I would have to get rid of the tank. It took me several years to realize what tank would meet my needs best.

I knew right here it was to tall.

To the right regular glass.

You purchased the aquarium from exotic? I bought my 220 20 yrs ago.

Sorry for the long delay, but trying to catch up on five articles and a little travel. This is what the draw set from Ikea was used for, the Control Center of my APEX Controller unit. Wire management is very important to me and this is a good way of managing all those wires we can't help but have in this hobby of ours.

I know this isn3 years after the post but domyou currently do consulting on Apex set ups?

Tony actually has volume 2 of his book coming out soon.
Scott Fellman left the hobby and is not doing tannins for freshwater.
Bob was a shocker. I was just chatting with him too a few days earlier, I think it was about Walt Smith.
