Bills 300 gallon tank build - Reef-Geeks

billrob71 · Will work for CLAMS

OK all thanks to Chris and Jared and my neighbor John, my new marine-land double deep 300
is here and on the stand and currently filling with water. I have pictures of the tear down of the old wall were the 180 was and up to currant filling with water. I'll post pics soon.

Tank will mainly be SPS, CLAMS , some LPS, zoas and of coarse CLAMS.

As of now all the old lighting will be over the new tank but working on LED's to replace the halides. Tank has 2 MP40's and couple other modded maxi jets, and a quiet one 9000 for return and to fill the surge tank that will be added later.
