Pros, i found i was able to Introduce Many Different Species into the tank both Aggressive and Docile. Feeding was always Easy didnt have to Worry about over feeding or under feeding there was always food either Clipped to a spot hidden on a pane of glass or some Live critters swimming between rocks. Always had Room to work in both sump and display. Introduction of new equipment wasnt a pain as there was always a new spot.

CONS !!!! Water CHANGES ! on this FOWLR i was doin 30gal a Week ! Skimming a 5 gallon Bucket every 2 weeks !!!! Electricity Soared with 2 Dart Return Pumps, UV equipment, T5 Lighting, Power Heads.

When you go BIG you GO BIG ! Everything Needs to be Taken into Consideration.

I Miss my 240 EVERYDAY ! Currently putting up with a 110 Tall and its just not the same :-( My Next Tank will be upwards of 300 gallons and again will be Stacked with Rockwork in the Center to allow a Shark to Freely Swim Laps around the Tank (pref in a Bullet Tank with Rounded Edges ;-)
