Waterbox Peninsula 7226 Build Thread

Any updates up dates on this tank? I'm looking to get one and wondering how it has been going, any upgrades or equipment changes?
 
I would also like an update but I see you have posted quite a lot elsewhere about your beautiful tank.

We have a Peninsula 7225 (which I assume is the same as the 7226 you have) being delivered later today to our home in the UK. We hope the pallet will fit in our garage - thanks for your original post pics they have put mind at rest somewhat.

One question…. How did you move the tank into the house? I have googled and it looks like it weighs 216kg (476lb) for the DT only!!!

I’ll be starting my own build thread once it arrives!

would get alot of buddies over to help move it and also supporting weight straps helps too. main thing is you want to display the load weight evenly as possible while moving it.

i know many people normally take out walls or sections of walls to get their tanks into their homes. a tank that heavy i would say get 6 people to play it safe total. but you can manage it with 4.

Straps are helpful. Also, glass suction cup handles are great.
 
Folks,

Figured it was time for some new pics. Tank is now 2 years old. All of the coral started out as frags from Battle Corals and Jason Fox.

My apologies for the pics, I haven't figured out how best to photograph the tank with my iPhone.

Great update. For two years running those are some sizeable colonies now. Looking fabulous.

In the last pic, the bottom left colony: who dat'?
