This week I'm very exited to show you the process I went through to upgrade my main display tank from a 125 gallon to a 220. This video documents the entire process from start to finish and I hope you enjoy it!
Equipment on the new tank (affiliate links):
Sand: amzn.to/2cz9izE
Light: amzn.to/2cLpltE
Big Eheim: amzn.to/2cz9Upc
Smaller Eheims: amzn.to/2cLpYmL
Stand: amzn.to/2c1un8a
Rock is a landscaping stone called Carderock

It's so beautiful!!! I'm extremely jealous of you. I just got a 50 gallon for my flowerhorn but I really want a 150 gallon because you're very right about seeing a bigger tank in your home it brings so much peace and there's really no need for a TV on my opinion. Thank you for your video

I went from a 125 to a 220 like you but I used two 55 gal drums to save the water and gravel as well as running my filters. It gave me immediate fish stocking without the worry about ammonia spikes and change over so as to not stress out the fish.

I know what you mean about the sleepless nights. I bought a 180 gallon tank, stand, and canopy. I couldn’t fill it and kept having restless nights thinking the stand would hold 2,000 plus pounds after filled and decorated. So I’m putting in many 2x4s under it to help support it.

Man i had a 180 and these things are HEAVY! Those 2 guys carrying that 220 surely must have ate SPINACH! WOW! It took 4 of us to move the 180! I sold my tank 2 years ago, if i get back in i would def do a 220 now! Cool video, and yes, from my experience over 30 years into fish, always empty out as much water as possible before trying to catch the fish. I am debating wether to build a 350 gallon indoor pond, or get a 220. Decisions, decisions.

It looks GREAT!! I find so many people switching to 100 to 300 Gallon Tanks. Given the great weight they place on ones floors, it is surprising to see this trend towards larger Aquaria. If we also see more young people getting into Fishkeeping and, then, breeding them, the Hobby will get stronger and eventually Fish will become the nation's number one pet.

If you want to prevent cloudiness, we place the plastic bags from the sand on top of the sand and begin filling. As the tanks fill, the bags will slow rise to the surface. From there, you just remove them. The slower you go doing this, the less cloudiness you will get. We use this method for saltwater tanks which we all know can be a pain in the butt.

+Team Pham that's a good tip, though in this case most of my sand was coming from the old tank. I had a couple of new bags but they were super nasty inside after the sand was emptied and I wouldn't have wanted them anywhere near my tank.

Well it helps that you're not sloppy or clumsy ... I'd have done it, too. My wife's the same way... but only after a few years of minimal accidents or spills and knowing I'm crazy careful with every project. By the way, what was the price the seller agreed on for the 210 you resealed? I'm curious what I should be thinking of paying myself. Also, that tank would've held without a doubt. No one ever really trusts their first reseal. After ten years I might have reseamed it but if there weren't any stress bubbles you'd have been golden for another decade with a reseal. FISH ON!

owl yea, herbie overflow to a refugium sump in the basement right underneath. and good thing you ditched the 210, while a reseal like you did is fine on up to a 55 gal, the only safe way to reseal a big glass tank is complete tear down because when you do the inside corners they are permanently bonded to the layer between the glass and this becomes a mono pour gasket for strength...
