240 Gal Through wall Build, Need some help and Ideas!
I want this to be Super easy to Maintain (Automatic Everything i can get)
and Very Low Power! Im not scared of doing solar tubes either if you think They will work in St Louis
So this is the plan 240G From Glass Cages
Aquarium: 240 Long 96 x 24 x 25 Tall for $919
Starphire on FRONT & REAR panel for $368
Reef-ready addition: 2 overflow(s) with 2 holes/o.v. for $150
4 bulkheads for $60
Acrylic covers for $70
What about the glass tops??
*Id like to order the tank ASAP - But need your guys thoughts on over flows - I believe the tank is Euro Braced. Ideally Id like Wall to wall overflows on each of the 24" side walls. From the inside of the house they would be covered behind drywall*
Ok Before I start asking anymore about Equipment This Will Likely be a FOWLR for now till i get this all figured out
I have two Major Concerns the DT will be in the wall with viewing from both rooms! NO SIDE viewing putting the Sump in the basement. So What about a pump that's efficient to pump the water back up about 8ft???
The Next major Concern Is the Display Tank Will see Temp swings from 45-50 upto 100F. The tank is going to sit in the garage (Already heated and cooled) with the front of the tank facing inside the house. The sump will be in the basement so that should cool the water down in the summer
