Queens In Doctor's Office 220 Gal Upgade

Hi wanted to introduce myself as i am fairly new to this forum. I've been into marine tanks for about 7 years when i started my first tank using a 40 breeder. The hobby grew on me as i bought equipment and developed the knowledge to begin my journey into the reefing world. Moved up to a 90G RR because the equipment i had to run it was bigger than the tank itself! In 2006 i moved the 90Gallon tank and water to my office. Eventually the softies, a few LPS, and some SPS had overgrown the tank and wanted a bigger and better challenge. The chemistry and ecosystem totally caught my interest. Maintaining a very stable tank for the last couple of years i want to dive (no pun intended) into an SPS dominated tank.

An the view into my waiting room. I wish the would be able to be viewed from the waiting room but the configuration didnt allow for it. Now the problem is that when a patient gets escorted to the treatment room they usually stop to look at the tank. Needless to say this sometimes delays me.

Here is the wreck one night while setting up the hood. The railings will hold my three Ice cap 250W MH with Electronic ballast I'm going with XM 10KK Mongul type. Ice cap 660 Electronic ballast with four Giesemann Actinic+ T5 36” 39W bulbs. Taking the power compact Actinics from the 90G n place them at the ends of the hood perpendicular to the front of the tank. Maybe some small 13W mini pc inside the hood for moon lights, but I'm never in the office that late to appreciate them. Maybe one day i'll bring the tank back home.
