I say skip the 120, go to the 180!!!

do it :sgrin:

 

[alrha]

:thrash:

 

[ctxmonitor]

well since you have the space, i say forgot about the 180 and go 450!! You won't have much of a heat problem since the basement always remain cool..:groupflip

 

[jhale]

It's in a basement? I would do the 180, or a 220 then.

maybe if we all say 220, Mike will go for the 180

120's feel small after a few months...

 

[SlamaJama]

uhhggg, u guuys r kill'in me..lol

 

[jhale]

we just want you to have a bigger piece of the reef

 

[masterswimmer]

That squami is sweet looking. Your tank is really shaping up. 'grats

I'm in agreement with Jon and David and everyone else. The 220 in the basement is a make sense move. The fact that you won't have to worry about heat, space, structural issues or the need to upgrade again soon after makes this a no brainer. If I had the room I would have done that as well.

Just think of the larger variety of fish you'll be able to keep in there. I'm seeing a suhweet school of Bartlett or Purple Anthias, a nice Powder Blue Tang, Naso Tang, Sohal Tang, 1/2 dozen or so of hot wrasses, and the list goes on. :Thinking: :thrash:

Honestly doesn't make sense going for the intermediate tank when you've got all the resources for the 220.

JH, let me know when I should start to apply the full court press :biggrin:

[jhale]

thanks for the assist Russ

I think a slow chipping away and Mike will break.

But really you can find a good used 220, and the cost of running it will not be bad. the lights will be the same, 3 250's is cool, maybe a bigger skimmer, but that's not a huge deal, the cash you save by not having to cool that sucker makes it worth it alone. Mike you need to see a 220 and then compare it too a 120, makes me want to get rid of my tank.
there can also be high flow and medium flow sections, the whole thing could be covered by 2 6080's and the return. get some extra rock and cook it up, bam you have a cheap 220 set up for the cost of running a 120, I'll take the extra 100 gallons.

that was not such a hard sell was it?

 

[SlamaJama]

u brainwash well, sounds great, but a 220g gotta cost sme big money
lmao@russ...

 

[jackson6745]

Mike a 150gal 48x30x24 can be setup for the same cost as a standard 4' 120G

 

[SlamaJama]

i cant buy new...cant possibly aford a "new" tank. TG D is giving this to me on the cheap, if some1 had a 220 for $100 im in for it.
because i have everything else for it
hey rich, btw, i have something here that urs..

 

[SlamaJama]

ok, well more pieces...
this 1 is a Jacquelineae...i think..lol

 

[jackson6745]

Mike thats awesome. I really love the colors you're getting. Dave is stopping by to pick up my surprise frag :lol_large I feel like a kid at a candy store!!!
