Not a starfire glass tank. He' right, you'll need 4 guys. Hell a regular 180 is almost too much for 2 guys. I know, I've moved & installed pleanty!

I will be selling the 90, although big frag tank would be pretty sweet.

Nice tank! What will you be using for your sump on the 180? Also, is your new 180 going up where the 90 is? Just wondering how much moving around your gonna have to do.

The 180 (presently full of rock and livestock at the house of previous owner) will be put in the same place that the 90 is (still full of rock, corals and livestock).
I'm not looking forward to it.

Its not that bad combining tanks, I have done it a few times now. You might start cussing at the frags haha, just work on it after the kids are in bed. Try to keep in your mind the areas you like on both tanks and recreate it in the new one. I had a cave in one of my tanks that I liked alot so I tried to keep those pieces of rock together in a bucket while moving everything around. It is always hard to figure out where to put all the fragile stuff, so dont worry you can always keep tweaking it for several days until you get it how you like it. I cant wait to see it, I'm sure it will look fantastic.

Keeping the same rocks in one bucket is a really good idea. Thanks SSweet

Hey Teach,

Looks like we all could use some lessons from you. Looks Fantastic.

However this is a serious coral shopping family! Last week when I saw them at a LFS, their daughter had set a dollhouse in one corner and their son was playing with toy men in another corner.

You do what you have to do. When we go anywhere near a lfs, my daughter says "NO! Not another fish store!"

Teach that's a great looking tank. Hate to see you have to tear it down, but once you get the 180 up and running I'm sure it'll turn out just as good as your 90.
