Well I'm bored sat here so I'll give you some spec's of my new tank to be. Setup should be in the next couple of weeks.

The majority of equipment is from my 4x2x2 I've just broke down (down sizing... lovely... not).

Tank

28"Lx28"Hx24"W 10mm glass.

Sump

25-30 gallon plastic tub, OR3500 as return pump.
Possibly an additional tank/tub as a refuge/extra capacity.

Lighting

1x400w blv 10k, bulb mounted in homemade reflector.
Probably with a pair of T5 blues to suppliment.

Circulation

1xTunze stream 6000 (probably with tunze controller for speed variation).
2xEheim 1060, setup as closed loop on system 2k wavemaker.

Other equipment

Deltec 850 skimmer.
Homemade kalkwasser stirer.
Deltec calcium reactor, with Pinpoint ph probe.
Teco ra240 chiller driven by OR3500.
System 2k heater module (yes I know! due to be replaced).


Tank will be mostly SPS and clams with a couple of LPS and softs.

Hi Martyn

Will get some put up soonish, gotta drill the tank build the stand etc, plenty to do.. along with the small matter of moving house as well :D

Once everything has settled again I'll have to arrange a visit, you have far too many nice frags in those tanks of yours ;)
