Loveless' 330gal build

loveless · #1 03-27-2009, 05:32 PM

Well typically im a lurker here and decided to start my own build thread. Hope everything goes well. This build is going to take a long time, maybe even a year to build. Also I work shift work so anything that happens does so every two weeks.

I currently have A 180GAL from aqua giant here in edmonton. I run 2 400w mh lights over it with an ASM G3 skimmer and a Mag 12 return. Nothing fancy.

At the moment I have tank being built by Marine Aquaria and it will be 90x30x28 tall making it around 330 gal (I think). It is going to have starfire glass front and both sides with a coast to coast overflow and closed loop.

And I am well aware that word dont mean a thing until we all see some pics...Be patient with me as this might not work right away.

The first pic is of my current tank,the rest are of the room that the tank is going into and the wall that has been removed for the new tank.

I am not entirely sure on on how to get pics posted onto the thread so any help would be great.

Wow, nice size.

Pictures: When you look at your photobucket account, hover your mouse over the photos. A little section should appear under it. The last option should show some text like "[img] something something something ", highlight this, copy, and paste into your post and the picture will show up inline. Hope this helps.

Going to be a great looking tank when it's done.

Marine Aquaria built my tank also, they did an amazing job of it. I'm sure you'll be happy.

Let me know if you need help with anything, I'm always up for lending a hand.

Looks Great. You will love the fact that you have quick access to water.

Haha, I love the pic where you started smashing a hole in the drywall, then realized "Stop! Time for a before picture!"

Looking forward to seeing this progress!
