10 foot Nano....kinda

[freeze]

The whole stand, front and back is going to be covered. going to have 1/8 plywood as a base and then have a reclaimed barnwood panel overlay on to of that. I don;t want to look through the railing and see fish stuff. The front and possibly sides will have removable panels so I can access for maintenance. going for a rustic look to match my stone and barn beam fireplace/mantel.

From everything I heave read about long shallow tanks, flow is a concern so thats why I went closed loop. Possibly put one powerhead on the over flow side but we shall see if its necessary. I also have th return on the far end of the tank. The last hole on the bottom of the tank will be the return and be covered by a rock tower. Figured that it would help with some natural flow with the water being returned as far from the overflow as possible.
