ReefDoctor over at RAG forum is putting in a 800 gallon tank.
The tank is four feet tall by 116 long and 36 front to back there are over 100 pieces of glass the bow is 1/2x2 panels laminated starfire and the rest is also all 3/4 starfire glass.

He's the guy with the mustache!

Wow. That's huge. It must weigh a ton. Reef or FO?

I wanna be there when they try to get it in the house. First floor I hope...

He is going to get the help of a crane company to live it up and over his garage and then have a few football players get it down stairs! The tank dry weighs 1400lbs and it will be a full blown reef tank!

Jeeze... you could almost snorkel in that thing.
That's gonna be a great tank when it's finished.
You say there's over 100 pieces of glass in it?

 

[MontanaRocknReefer]

That's what he said! It's starfire glass!
It will have 2x 1000 wat halides and 4x400 watters and a few 250 watters for light!

Jeeze... you could almost snorkel in that thing.

Um......I don't think my stand craftmanship would hold for that one...heck Im worried about my 60g being to heavy...

 

[thefatman]

holy toledo batman!!! that thing is HUGE!!!

look at the size of those overflows!! they are bigger than my 55g tank

what is starfire glass? and why over 100 pieces?

 

[Ammck]

I cant imagine even big guys carrying 1400 lbs down a stair well.
Id like to be a fly on the wall and see that.

Hope it works out.. Best of luck to them!
:beer:

Hrm...
So what would be a ballpark price for a tank of that caliber?
Probably more than I have invested in my whole 55g reef so far...
