Slyguy00 is on a distinguished road
Default Slyguys 6ft shallow reef build!

So since this is my first decent size tank and it is taking a little more work and planning then I prepared for I decided I may as well do a build thread so I can go look at it down the road and see my progress. Tank is 6'x18"x18" and I will be running a halide /T5 combo. Just need to figure out how I'm going to go about doing that.
I decided that I want to put my tank in a new location that is a little more suitable for a 6ft. But that required me to tear out an existing desk that was in that spot. Thanks Ryanerickson for helping me with this part.

After puttying and sanding I got to work painting.




I found a stand for my tank but it wasn't in the best shape so Tyler and I stripped it down and made some changes, but it isn't finished yet, so I will post pics soon.



Tank is currently being drilled and the stand should be done this week. I'm hoping to have water in it by next weekend.
More pics to come
