Who all has big tanks.
 
Hey all. Just wondering who out there also has a huge reef. My tank is 120”x38.5x28 tall. It’s an acrylic tank I made myself a few years ago. I’ll upload some pics later but just wondering if anyone else has a tank this size or bigger

I wish! I topped out at a 300g tank.

Ya, mine topped out at 290. I wish it were bigger but I'm struggling with this one as it is. :)

I don’t think most people realize just how hard a big tank is. What’s your struggles?

I got a 270g system but i just bought a 470g with a 135g sump. Might be a few months before its up and running.

A 470 is a big tank. What dimensions?

96 x 30 tall x 40 deep

Mines a whopping 350. If I had to do it again I would probably get it another 6" deeper (front to back). I have had bigger tanks but this size is perfect. By the way my tank size is in litres :biggrin: so I guess in the end I don't measure up to the rest of you. My wife has said it is big enough and that's good enough for me.
