asmodeus...when dealing with your wife ... and tank sizes you have to use the "NEW" math. That is length in feet * width in feet * 5.2 .. :wink: .yea that gets you there. Oh and the other common discussion you have with your wife about tanks...(W) man that is a big tank. (you) oh no every one has one that size... :roll:

Wow...that's a big tank! Especially for freshwater. I kept a 135gal FW tank before and I couldn't keep up with the work of keeping it looking right. Good luck with the big tank :)

Hey,

What are the dimensions of the tank. I always wanted a bigger tank and I will be developing my basement sometime. I have a 180 degree turn in my stairs and I am just wondering how big of a tank can I actually maneuver down those stairs. I would want a glass tank.

Seriak,
I can answer that as Mike is on a months holidays. His tank is similar to mine only its 30in. wide. Its 6ft. L by 30in. W by 30in. D

They are made from 5/8in. glass, ordered by Jayson,{Saltwaterconnection}, from his supplier. Both his tank and mine, were built in the house. Its rather easy actually. {well Jayson had to help with mine}. :) Both are also downstairs and they are just to heavy and bulky to carry down, when together.
