KrazyKuch's & Michika's 180Gal Tank Build

[KrazyKuch]

Well we just picked up our glass from Bow Valley Aquarium, and I have to say wow what great service, we placed the order this afternoon and when we came to pick it up at 4:30 they were just finishing cutting it up, they loaded it into the back of our truck for us. Even gave us some good pointers on how to clean the glass and the best way to go about putting it together.

The tank is 72"X24"X24" (standard 180Gal) All the glass is 1/2" thick, we are gonna set it up as a FOWLR but latter converting to a Mixed Reef..

Here is the tank sitting on my floor.


Here is a side view of the stack of glass.(the piece on the left is the center brace)
