Hello all from Southcentral, PA

[tfoster7189]

Hello! My name is Tony. I just came back to keeping AC's about a year ago after many years of keeping a reef tank. I currently only have 1 AC tank setup. It is a 220gal w/built-in-overflows feeding a Marineland model 4 sump with a MagDrive 12 return pump (1200gph). For my substate I have 200lbs of CarribSea African Cichlid sand w/ sandstone river-rock for my aquascaping. My current livestock is as follows:

(5) Labidochromis Caeruleus (Yellow Lab.)
(3) Neolamprologus Pulcher (Daffodil)
(5) Iodotropheus Sprengerae (Rusty Cichlid)
(4) Aulonocara Rubescens (Ruby Red Peacock)
(3) Metriaclima Pyrsonotos (Red Top Zebra)
(3) Labeotropheus Fuelleborni (Orange Blotch)
(3) Protomelas Taeniolatus (Red Empress)
(3) Maylandia Zebra (Blueberry Orange Blotch)

Below, you should find a link to see a video of my tank if you are so inclined, along with a pic. and please feel fre to let me know what you think. Thanks

Welcome to the club!

Sick tank. I Love the video. How long has it been setup?

[tfoster7189]

I'll try to answer these in questions in order.

RichOne - I'm about an hour west of Harrisburg via the turnpike.

Big Z - Shirleysburg, PA

Tony - The 220 gal. has been setup for a lttle over 2 months. Before that, they were housed in a 90 gal. I figured that before long, I would have to upgrade, so I've always wanted a big tank and the stars finally aligned for me both financially and space wise, so I figured, why not. I told my wife that it would probably take me a couple of months to get it up and running, needless-to-say, it was up and running and the 90 was torn down in 2 weeks.
