Hello everyone... Well, my tangs have been growing well in the 6 X 2 X 2 lately, and it's now time for an upgrade. Green light has been given - for the tank to be built after i finish my GCSE exams - (why am i on ultimate reef now when i should be revising! - shhh) Haha.
Anyway, i thought i would start with some info of what the tank will be, as its all part of the fun!
L X W X H
90" X 28" X 30" Main tank
60" X 24" X 18" (12" water level) Sump tank
Giving me a total volume of around 375 gallons / 1500 litres before displacemet.
Planned Equipment
To be honest, it will probably change, some of the stuff i already have though, as you will see, i'm a Deltec kind of guy!
1 X Deltec AP703 Skimmer
2 X Deltec HLP 4040 Return Pumps
1 X Deltec FR616 Fluidized Reactor running Phospate Remover
1 X Deltec FR509 Fluidized Reactor running Carbon
1 X Deltec NRP512 Nirate Reactor
1 X Deltec Auto Top Up unit
1 X Deltec 39W UV Sterilizer
2 X Vortech MP40W Circulation Pumps
1 X Triple Arcadia Series 3/4 3 X 250W Lights
Possibly a Deltec Ca reactor depending on whether or not i go down the balling route or not.
Decided to oversize on most of the equiptment as i want to have a few good sized tangs in the tank, so a heavy bioload.
Comments appreciated, hoping to make this a great tank, lots of tangs and hopefully heavily stocked SPS reef.
Best Regards, Adam

) and Giesmann all do good halide units 
Lots of people running Arcadia halides have balast issues fairly early in their life. Save yourself some trouble
