Could not pass up this deal so we bought the 600 gallon. Big upgrade from the 220. Going to be on a tight budget so it’s going to go very slow but I am very excited to get it done. I am hoping in the next month or so it will be moved into place so we can start the build.

Thanks. It’s exciting but little scary

Wow! Nice looking tank! Can't wait to see it up and running!

Got the sump for the tank. It’s a Bashsea pro series 60 x 18 x 16. Also got 4 panta Rhea pumps for flow gonna run dual maxspect jump 10k return pumps because I already have these pumps and have had no problems with them.

I'm in! Following to see this incredible project come to life. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
 
Went to reefapaloosa today and ended up getting the rest of the aqua scape from reef scape designs out of Miami I think they look fantastic and are adjustable in the tank also got 2 more xr30 g6 blue for a starting total of 5 we will see what the par will be and adjust from there. Still need the 220 moved hopefully it will sell quickly. The new tank will need placed and leveled. Need sand. Wish I liked the bare bottom look, plumbing pipe and fittings And 3 more bags of Red Sea blue bucket salt. Then it will be time to start the cycle

Impressive tank! Would love to see detailed posts of how you move and install it. I’m going through the logistics challenge of moving my 300 tomorrow. At 440 lbs, it’s a challenge. I can’t even imagine how I’d move your tank.
 
Holy cow! This is going to be fun to watch come together. Are you planning a mixed reef?
