The Display Tank:
Courtesy of sphelps. It was a pleasure doing business with you sir.

Original plan was to have one built custom, but Steve’s tank had very similar dimensions to what I was looking for, so I bought it, for quite a discounted price compared to building new, so that was a plus!

Since I am limited as to what weight I am allowed in a 4th Floor apartment, this isn’t as much as a size upgrade as it is an equipment, functionality, and modernization upgrade.

103 gallon ‘Rimless’ design
54”L x 22”W x 20”H
3 sides 12mm Starphire Glass (front & sides)
Clear silicone, black painted background
Internal overflow and return holes through the bottom glass are so the tank can be flush against the wall.




The Sump:
Custom built by Concept Aquatics.

Regular 3/8” Float Glass
40”L x 18”W x 16”H




The Stand:
Custom built by The Grizz.

54”L x 22”W x 32”H
Welded Steel
Black Marine Enamel Paint

In time, I plan to do the skirting for the stand myself depending upon the color scheme I decide to go with in my new flat. This will be decided later on.
