Very excited to start this build at my new house in Maine. No more renting apartments and moving tanks!! Yay! Lol.
This tank I just picked up is a Marineland 265 gallon 7’ long x 2’ wide and 30” tall. After owning a marineland 300DD (6x3x27”) im really looking forward to the extra length of a 7’ tank and not having such a wide tank as the 300dd. I cant wait to see what kind of aquascape i can do with this long tank.
This tank is only a few years old and aside from a couple scuffs on the silicone, the last owner really took good care of it. No scratches on the glass!!
I bought it as a complete setup. Including lights, rock, pumps, mixing station etc. The lights are reef breeders. It has a full apex setup with a trident. Neptune powerheads. Coral box return pump. Gyres. Dosing pumps and containers. 2x500w finnex heaters. Simplicity skimmer. (I may use my old vertex)
Thanks to @Gene and wife, and Tim for the help lifting. Looking forward to getting it cleaned up and put together. Still debating on whether or not to set it up in the living room (after the new wood floors go in a month) or se it up in the dining room. We will see. Ill keep you posted as things come together.
