Default Brotherd's 220

Here we are. I lost my 180 so I'm starting again from scratch. Almost...I managed by some miracle to save almost all of the equipment and fish from the 180.
My new tank is going to be 72x30x24tall. I also have a new custom 120 gallon sump in the works as well. This is going to be a slow build as I'm going to set up and cycle the new system while my temporary system is still running. Lots to plan and lots to purchase but its in the works

I found some time to stop by Concept today. Was thinking of taking a couple pics but they have a lot of tank builds on the go so I didn't bother. I have to say the tank is looking spectacular. Beveled edges, fully polished. And it's HUGE! I've never seen a 120 gal sump in person. I have now

Picked up the stand on Sunday. Shiny like car paint and perfectly square. I'm impressed. Now to collect the tank and sump this weekend. I can't wait! Pics to come soon.

I'm on the same boat as you, building a 220G, but with a 100G sump.

You should do 30" tall!
