Upgrading 60 --> 225 (lots of pics)

[Bruce Wayne]

I was planning on upgrading my 60 gal to a 180 but came across a 225...here is the old 60:

here is the 225:

I wanted a 42" stand and had this one made...it is amazing, adjustable height on the light holders, powder primered, powder coated, etc:

making room for controllers, outlets, etc::moil:

waiting for the sump, Tom! where you at?! It should look like this:

Let me know what you think...thanks!

I never can get enough "Look, I can fit my girlfriend/wife in the tank" pics... I'm definitely following along! Hahahaha.

I'm also planning a "60 gallon to x gallon" major upgrade and am currently in the process of collecting equipment. Do you have an equipment list yet?

Thanks,

Chad

Neither can I, actually I have a build thread on RC and I had that pic titled "Classic new bigger tank w your girl in it pic:"

Going with a Bubble King 250, (2) Tunze 6205's, Apex Controller, autotopoff.com ATO, Sea Side Aquatics Reactor(s) and Chemical holders, Vortech mp10 in the frag section of the sump, (2) quiet1 4000 returns...I haven't gotten lights yet, I def want to go LED, just looking around, I want them to be quiet, that is one of my biggest concerns w this tank...

You might have problem with the Quite One later when you turn off/on them...Some time you need to knock on the pump to make them run. Eheim pump for return is the best.
