    Default 315 Gallon Setup - TITAN AQUATIC!!!

    Ok so here is my 300 gallon build thread # 2.

    This is the link to thread #1. The disappointing tank I received from Tenecor.
    Tenecor 300 Build

    As many of you guys know, after the disappointing tank that i received from Tenecor a few weeks back, I sold the tank and re-ordered another 315 gallon from another tank manufacturer. I went with Titan Aquatics. (More info about this company will be given once i receive my tank). All I can say is that they have been great so far. Great communication and they're even sending me updated pics of the tank construction process from their facility!!! Step by step!!!

    I'm hoping I can get them to jump on board BCA and offer higher quality custom acrylic tanks to us!!! I should be able to setup group buys from them in the near future!!! Stay tuned!!!


    Here are the specs once again:
    - 315 Gallon Titan Aquatic 7x3x2 - Thicker 3/4 inch Acrylic all around. (unlike tenecor's standard .5 inch acrylic!!!)
    - Custom Sump is slighty under 150 gals (5 feet long x 2 feet wide x 20 inches high 129.32 gallons)
    - Custom wooden stand
    - 2 quiet one 9000s
    - Koralia Magnum 8 Powerhead
    - Jehmco 1000w heater and controller
    - Coralife Turbo Twist UV 36 watt.
    - x2 Compact Flo 36 inch

    I have finally moved out my existing 210 gallon setup yesterday and put my 300 gallon stand and sump in place. I'll be working on the plumbing this weekend so when the tank arrives, itll just be plug and play!!!

    Stand and sump in place:



    Heres my fish cramped up in a 150 gallon until their new tank arrives:


    Here is the fabrication process so far: Enjoy the build pics!!!

    Looks like one incredible build ! You don't seem to have a whole lotta room above the sump, a tight squeeze there. I'm following along

    Looking good. I love that they sent you progress photos. Everyone likes to see projects as they come together.

    Also, I love that his work bench is acrylic.

    Very nice. I see they are in Arizona. Hopefully the shipping costs are not prohibitive. Would sure be nice to go acrylic with my next big tank.

    Hopefully these guys will provide a nice alternative to Tenecor. Looking good so far.
