Ok I pulled the trigger. I pick it up this weekend. 210g Reef Ready, tank, stand and MH/T5 Lights(those will be upgraded to LED's VERY shortly). I saw the listing on CL and sent the pick to my wife. I was Sending it to her thinking "Maybe someday" She replied with, "I WANT IT". So i contacted the guy. Turns out I knew him. We squared a deal on the tank. He assures me the seals are perfect, plumbing/bulkheads are new, and he's got 12 extra T5ho and 6 extra MH bulbs tossed in. All that for $600. i figured it would take a month or so to save the money. THEN....
As if it was meant to be, i landed 3 different all day jobs, raking up BOO-KOO overtime, so the tank will be picked up Saturday Morning.
Dimensions of the tank are 72"Wide, 24"Deep, and 29" Tall. Much as i hate MH lights, i may have to keep them to light this monster. SO the 150g(http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forum/index.php?threads/diy-aquarium-stand.94214/#post-1288488) and stand are consigned to a corner in the garage until i get a handle on the 210. THEN i plan(per my lovely SW addicted Wife's instructions) to cut the 150 down from 28" tall to 14-16" Tall, and plumb it for Overflows/returns. The last two frag tanks i made were nice, but SHE wants 1 big tank. While i do all the work/research, she is becoming even more of an addict than I am. LOL. I told her the other day "SW is my addiction and you're becoming a serious Enabler!" She replied "Yea, whats your point?"
