Well. Thanks to Craigslist- I was able to afford a much bigger tank! It's gonna need some cleaning up- but it will be worth it!
I need to raise the stand about 12 inches- maybe build a new canopy and clean up some sand. I bought the tank for 600$ with the stand and canopy. Plus a refugium- but my current refugium is much larger so when I sell the 90 gal I'll keep that one and sell this one that came with the 220. I was able to purchase 150 lbs of sand from my LFS for 40$ (used) and I need to rinse it well. Will do the same with the sand from the 90 before transferring it over.
Here's a pic of the tank filled with water so I can clean it up in the morning. I figured I'd let it soak overnight to soften everything up.

Here's the stand and most of the stuff that came with the purchase...

And here's the canopy. My buddy hijacked some lights since I'm just going to use my leds.
