Here is my double tank build thread in which I decided to split the tanks i had into two much better designed systems, one 90 BB for sps and clams only and a 225 for LPS and softies only....although I am out of room in my sps tank so there are sps in the 225 as well, and i dont see that changing.......
http://thereeftank.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72298
Actually i am about ready to break down the 225 here in the next couple of months after only been running for 3 months........My two major regrets in this double build both revolved around the 225. So it must come down.......

I could dig mine up, but there isn't much to it. I don't think it's been updated since I drilled the holes.
