Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

Just thought I'd start a new thread for the new tank.

I'll get some pics in here ASAP.

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

It looks cluttered in that last pic... I've gotten rid of some frags and rearranged some of the rock.

I'll post a newer pic soon.

I'll get some new pics of the inhabitants too.

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

Looks good, did you use stuff from your old aquarium. How long has the new tank been set-up?

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

What kind of lighting do you have?

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

Thanks, yes I used the stuff from my old tank.

Right now, the lighting is dual 175w MH 10k.
I'm upgrading to dual 250w MH 14k soon though.

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

Sorry... the tank has been up for about a month.
So far, things have settled in nicely.

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

What was the old tank size again? (I did read something you posted earlier but I forget. It beocmes a problem with age.)

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

LOL

75 gallon with 20 gallon sump.

The 20 gallon slid right under the stand for the 92.

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

The lighting is just a "quick" fix right now.
I took the board that was holding the lights in the old canopy and made a quickie fixture just to get them on the tank. I knew it would be a while before I got the new canopy built, and I knew that I would be upgrading too... so... it looks like crap. But, it's functional.

Once I get the canopy done, I'll get some pics.

I've already started on it, so it shouldn't be too long.
Here's the new doors that will be on it.

Re: Bwlr's 92 Corner Tank

Did you go side to side, or front to back with the lights?
