1720, actually - internal. Actual is about 1650, minus space at the top, and the overflows.
Empty tank weighed in at 1600# - and we used plain old brute force to lift it. Had 5 friends over, 4 of us lifted one end, while the other two slid the stand under the tank, then everyone got on the other side and pushed it up. Took about 30 minutes to argue about which was the best way to do it, and about 5 minutes to actually do it. Then I used a pallet jack to move the whole thing into place.
wish i could have something like that in my garage. It gets to cold up here in the winters and would have to heat to the garage.
Good luck with everything. If I added up all my tanks and all of my containers, it would still not equal half that volume.
if you dont mind, what was the price tag on that big brute?
Having trouble creating a new thread today - so posting more pics here.
What you've been clammoring for, quality pics of the tank, with its first elasmo occupant. A sexy young california horn shark. She's accompanied by a six line grouper, a dozen long spine urchins, a couple chocolate chip starfish, and a half dozen serpent stars. Front of the tank does need to get cleaned - sorry bout that.
On a side note, went diving at Leo Carrillo in SoCal. Bad. Ass. We saw in a single two hour period a 3' smooth hound, several leopard sharks (one was easily 5.5' - that was pretty awesome - my buddy swam right up next to it so we could get an approximate length). Also some horn sharks and a swell shark, and some guitarfish. Plus thousands of fish and inverts. Water was a balmy 69 degrees, and visibility was over 30'.
AWESOME shark + tank + stock wish i had mine ready when i see this lol
no wonder port jackson is a fam of them except for colors they look alike
