New Build ~ 600 Gallon

[JK47]

I will see if I can find the drawing I made of my idea. It needs some work and has changes a bit but it will give you an idea of my plan. It's for a 540 tank

Please do. The more feedback we can come up with the better. There is minimal info available on them. Mine will replace using 100 micron socks if it works.

I bought a 2' x 2' piece of 180 micro stainless mesh from McMastercarr. I have a plan to make a sieve filter for my next tank I'm going to be running a reeflo hammer head on so 2 1 foot x 2 foot sieves with sprayer to wash it down to a catch tray

Are you ordering a new hammerhead or already have one? I will be done with my hammerhead by the first week of June and am replacing it with a gold dart. Lmk if you would want it.

I found one used for 200 bucks. It sucks because the baldor motor where made in the town I work and if I knew they where leaving I would have snagged a spare motor and brush set. If you where not so far away I would come down and buy it.
Missed out on buying a dart not to long ago. Brand new never used with a spare impeller housing, seal kit threaded fitting, true union ball valves, unions

I'll PM you when I get ready to clear out some equipment, I am sure there are a few gems in the garage I am forgetting about. I have enough used equipment that I thought about doing a fish garage sale over the summer. I've been hoarding for a while...

Justin, do you mind shooting me a PM when that time comes as well? I'm trying to clear out some equipment of my own at the moment but always on the lookout for quality equipment.

Sounds good to me. I am also a hoarder I think it comes with the hobby

Roger that! You got it bro. This tank is almost done and I am remodeling three more tanks after this so I should have a lot of gear remaining. Multiple acrylic sumps as well as a hammerhead, dart, lots of 300 watt heaters with guards and somewhere in the ballpark of 200 gallons of biomedia. Stay tuned

40w emperor aquatic uv and the hammerhead

Thanks man! You sound just like me, four+ 75 gal tanks, several 20s, two hammerheads, a commercial Reeflo pump, two large DCP pumps, I just seem to collect stuff and never let it go lol.
