do i qualify for this thread???

I have a 120 (not large on its own) tank, a 30 gal sump, and soon to be 30 gal prop system. does this qualify as a large reef tank? if so i will post my system build thread here, if not, elsewhere.

thanks guys (and gals)

This thread has been moved to the current forum.

120g tanks don't qualify for the Large Tank Forum.

Large reef tanks are generally considered to be 180 gallon displays or larger.

I assume you mean because it is a 180gallon system. But Large tanks are generally 180gallons Display like spike78 said.
