Ok, so I priced out tanks yesterday and I decieded on something a little bigger than a new 55g thats drilled
I found a great price on a LeeMar tank and stand. They call it an 80R, but the dimensions of it come out to 93g. Its 48lx18dx25h. I priced a big LFS and the same Leemar tank with their own overflow and holes came to $500, and I priced a small LFS and the tank, leemar overflow, holes and oak stand came to the same $500. I efiled my tax return yesterday, so when that gets in... New tank here I come!!!
My friend that just traded me the 18g tank, light and stand for my old 29g, is going to trade me back the 29g for the 50g setup (tank, stand, 18g sump and canopy). I'm going to use the 29g as the sump.
My new setup will be as follows:
93g leemar tank
4x65w CSL (Orbit equivalent) + a spare JBJ 2x55w fixture (this is temp till I bite the bullet and get my T5's) Or I might just use the 2- 2x96w coralife retros that I have, I don't know yet.
29g sump
Coralife 220 NW skimmer
about 70-80 lbs of LR, whatever's in the 50g now I think its about that much
10g seahorse tank:
10g tank
2x40w orbit light
remora skimmer
male and female horses (have a male now, just got him yesterday!)
about 10-15lbs LR
5g nano:
5g leemar tank
2x9w coralife light
AC300 filter
5 lbs of LR
pearly jawfish (always wanted one)
this tank, along with the 10g will hold frags occasionally too.
