Copycat Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 So I was building a 300 gallon reef but things changed as I just couldn't fit an 8 footer in m y basement properly. I ended up getting a hold of Jeremy, who then told me about someone selling a 330 gallon. The tanks dimensions are 72x30x36 tall. It's a big boy, and a much better fit in our home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copycat Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 ^above is my wife modeling for Me and showing off the size of this thing. It is 1" acrylic and weighs every bit of 500 pounds. It was build by ATM. And the build quality is remarkable. It's polished and ready to go! It will be plumbed into the remote fish room I've been constructing in our garage seen here: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budman Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 That is a big deep tank. You might need some snorkel gear to place stuff on the sandbed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copycat Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yeah it is! But I like how tall it is. Makes it look less like a tank and more like a giant picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReefNewby82 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yeah it was a while back for sure...you were just winging it when I met ya! I moved your thread over here since it looks like you would be adding to it throughout your build. Good luck with all of the upgrades...
