Upgrading my 75g reef to a new 125g

[Terryc]

So Iv decided to upgrade my 75g reef tank. The tank arrived a couple of days ago and today all of my equipment has arrived and will be moving everything over this weekend. Loads of pics to follow.

All my rock, corals and fish added. Everything's doing well apart from a cleaner shrimp that didn't last the night.

Is the aquareef 400 your new tank? I thought 400 was 80G? Not 125?

Doing it to American gallons as mostly Americans that comment on the post. Wasn't trying to make out I had a bigger tank

So 125 or 80 gallons? And aren't american gallons just gallons? Not aware of a difference.

Sorry I didn't mean to sound horrible. I have an aquareef 400 also in uk and it is 80G uk. Just converted that online and its 96 us G.

No no worries mate, like I said I wasn't trying to make my tank look bigger, I was doing the sump included. Works out about 122 U.S. Gallons I think
