thats going to look pretty slick once its all together. And that skimmer probably holds more water then a few of those nano tanks kicking around!

Well long over due been away in Florida trying to soak up the sun , But that didn't happen

. Oh Well back home to work on the stand and tank.

received my second order of ECO REEFER ROCK. WOW.

finally got around to using some Tie straps to make some cool stuff I guess tell me what you think. And after looking at it I see a dragon or a SEA Monster in the left side so cool.

Still need to work on this one I may make a tower ,but I may not any idea's

Ok I have to ask.......... your overflow is sooooooo small and I need to know why and how well do you think it will work. I am not bashing the design as everyone has different ideas.

Its OK Grizz no worries I like them that way then I get way more area to have for the fishies. I used it on my last tank that is currently running the 150 and its has been going great for 2 years. less is good in a long tank/ and it worked the best with the design that i built

Well it is definitely different and can't wait to see it running. When you get it flowing you should do a small video to show how it works.

You could maybe stack a couple of base cabinets?

Ok so I bought the Wood for the stand I'm going to be going with Birch. Thought that i would try something different. Got together with my buddy who is allowing me to use his shop. Came up with a plan and a drawing He would let me use the shop unless I had a vision in my head and something on paper.

He knows me to good. The Stand will have access through the front however I will be using Rare earth magnets to hold the front on plus to latches for safety. I'm going to be having a feed door on the left side so im not always in the top Hmmmmmmmmmm like that is going to stop me.

The stand will 78" high and then 4" piece of crown molding shelf lick will be on the top.

I'm hoping to have this stand done by end of the month. The Reason I placed my order for 5 Small yellow tangs, 1 chevron tang, and a Tommi Tang. So I want to have them in the tank before I add (LIPS AKA sailfin)
and (@ss AKA KOLE) and well LULU she just don't care and man she is getting fat close to 1.5" fat and 5"

I'm going to paint the inside of the hood white with bathroom to seal it. and its going to be stained on the outside just haven't figured out what.

Well I will have build pictures tomorrow
