You could park a small car in there :)!

What are the plans for overflow system? I just did a Bean Animal style and it works great.

That is one sexy tank. And it's only going to get sexier. Can't wait!

Beautiful looking tank.

I would recommend some support down the center of the stand to support the tank. Last thing you want is the bottom of the tank bowing and then cracking. Perhaps some 8' 2x6 going left to right, one at 10", 20" and 30" from front pane. Then under those you would have 2 x 6 running from front to back where you have the existing legs. That is how I built my stands and they are going strong after 8 years. Albeit the tanks they support only have 15" of water depth and they are 4' x 8'.

Cheers,
Tim

If I understand correctly, without re-reading, I do believe the Grizz built the stand for this tank, so it should be good to go. After all, he is a working welder and has built many aquarium stands.
But you didn't know that, did you Tim :mrgreen:
( just say you didn't know that )
