Ok you have a 190 gal tank,, how would you set it up,,,, as far as sand beds, plenuem, pumps, sumps, lighting ,,,,etc????? I'm looking for opinions and what you guys think would work best,,,, another words your dream system .
That is a good starting size but I would like something larger (and I am not kidding either)...
Personally I find the fun thing in setting up the tank is to minimize costs, experiment and put a personal touch on it.
One comment though, I recently setup a 40G saltwater tank and then I went to the Cook Islands for a holiday. I did lots of snorkling and saw the fish I like in their natural environment. When I came back, I decided to change the setup to reflect a piece of nature to best of what I could.
So next time I set up a larger tank, I will be taking a trip to the native are where the fish comes from and see where they live and how they behave. Expensive way of doing it but to me, it is the ultimate fun in aquariums...
