ooh I like all the tangs. Nice maroon pair too.

 

wow this is awesome!

 

nice BIG fishes!

 

The tank could be 265 gallons I believe Perfecto makes it. That's an awesome undertaking! I have a 210 and it is a beautiful experience. I've recently cut back a little on the feeding and the water got clearer. What do you have underneath? I have a simple RM300 sump/refugium by Sealife Systems and it works good and quiet. What about lighting? Do you have a canopy? Fill me in and maybe I can help you. Good luck. I love the fish you have.

 

Thanks everyone! REALLY hoping to bring the tank home today. Hopefully the guy is taking his stuff out right now.lol

Thanks! The purple tang is about 8 inches. The guy only charged me a 150 for all of those fish (hippo, purple, yellow, and pair of maroon yellow stripe). Was an amazing deal.

I don't have the tank yet. All my new fish are spread out in 125 gal qt tanks.

 

Nice, cant wait to see the rest. Did the equipment come with the tank?

 

FINALLY picked up the tank today!! Came with a 60 gal sump that was a nice surprise! Here are some pics of it. That's my husband in the picture and he's not a small guy. I made him stand by the tank so you can sort of tell how big it is. Lots to do to it!! Doesn't look fantastic at the moment.lol I'll keep updating as we go along!

 

WOW! You've got some work to do. This build is going to be sweet!
