360 Gallon Display Tank w/1200+ Gallon Total Volume - Frankenstein Build

[DarkTang]

I just got my dream tank (currently) today! Its dimensions are 6Lx4Wx2H giving it 360 gallons with 5Lx2Wx18"H sump. I will be adding these to my current system which will boost my total volume over 1200!

Stay tuned!

I cannot wait to aquascape this!

So a quick overview of the whole system. I call it the Frankenstein system because it's a lot of tanks connected together. I currently have 3 display tanks: 75 gallon, 93 gallon cube, 28 gallon cube all plumbed together. My sump tanks are in the basement. I have a main 135 gallon breeder sump which everything is gravity fed into. 135 gallon sump with a few big fish and live rocks. 100 gallon refugium. 50 gallon frag / growout tub. 60 gallon rimless frag tank.

For lighting for my 360g DT I will use Pandora Hyperion S2 LEDs / T5 combo with 4 hydra 52s. Flow I will use Jebao RW20s.

If anyone is selling a skimmer rated for 1000+ commercial let me know!

I haven't used it personally but it seems like a beast.

Here's an update for today:

I cleaned out the tank with white vinegar and it looks great!

@Madtanks will be helping me making it look brand spanking new with acrylic buffing!

Love my new 75g reservoir with built in float valve. I combo it with my 1:1 ratio Vertex puratek rodi with auto shut off when reservoir is full. Double protection ftw!
