      Unless its Acrylic..then everybody is Superman. I've moved my 240 by myself in the past. Lift one end up and put it on a chair...lift other end up and place on stand...soon,its up and ready.

    @StanTheObserver-lo8rx 6 лет назад

    Whatever filter they came up with...remember to add a sack of polyfill aka Floss. Its still the best media out there and still better then floss sheets. All that crap about bio balls is malarkey. Any filter that is a sack of floss over 10 or 20 gallons of small lava rock is still the best.

    Awesome tank and I really look forward to the set-up videos. It'll be great to see the umbee in there. What made you decide to go with the 24" width and 30" height? Wouldn't a 30" width work better for your umbee?

    • @StevePolandAquatics
      @StevePolandAquatics  6 лет назад

      The way this room is set up, 30” deep would stick out too far. Otherwise I would love the 30 and 24 to be reversed

    Where is he going to put this tank? The water alone weighs 2,500 pounds, add in the weight of the tank and the stand, now you’re pushing close to or over 3,000 pounds. I hope it doesn’t collapse the floor.

    • @StevePolandAquatics
      @StevePolandAquatics  6 лет назад

      It’s going against a wall and perpendicular to the joists. Those joists are relatively short (10 ft) and sit directly on a concrete slab foundation wall. Then I have reinforced the floor directly in front of the tank with two posts.
