    312 Gallon Tank Build

    Im using a hammer head pump as a return which is rated at 5800 gph. That in turn is going through two 1.5" seaswirls that will each handle 3,800 gph. Now here is the tricky part. I am going to loose some pressure due to having to pump water about 5' up. What the flow rate coming out of the...

    312 Gallon Tank Build

    Im not sure on the build specifics. I have a guy from Portland coming up to assemble it. Too large to put together in his shop. Im confident in his build skills, hes been building everything acrylic for several years now from tanks to skimmers.

    312 Gallon Tank Build

    Why i went for 20" deep is the easy of maintenance and reaching things. Also in my 120g tank it is made up of 5 huge rocks (around 30-40lbs each) and i am going to set those up as their own little islands. Each island will be setup for specific species of coral. Acropora Island, Montipora...

    312 Gallon Tank Build

    Doing it all in 1.5", and yes I got the hammerhead hybrid pump. It's going to have a 5' run through 1.5" spa flex to minimize flow loss due to 90 deg elbows. I decided against closed loop for a cleaner looking build

    312 Gallon Tank Build

    Doing 5,800 gph flow through with 1.5" beans animals. I wanted to make sure that it could handle the volume so we put in two of them The return is going through two 1.5" seaswirls. So im hoping to achieve a good rate of flow with the two mp 40's backing that up

    312 Gallon Tank Build

    Yes i wanted the entire back edge of the aquarium to be an overflow. The box behind the overflow will hold dual bean animal setups
