Marlin65 6' Drop tank build.

[Marlin65]

Put up the sides today and got my light finished to test it and see what it looks like.

I think I get it. Looks to be a drop off style aquarium but your making a little swimming area in the middle? Lol if I'm correct

I can't quite "see" the final drop tank look yet.
Its looking good though.

Looking forward to have pics and description of your light.

I think I see your twist. Are those 2 chambers dsbs?? Neat idea!

[Scythanith]

I think it's the other way haahaa! Probably stack rock in the middle and have the two sides "drop" away.

[Marlin65]

rickcasa has it right.

I plan to fill the two sides with a DSB. I was going to fill them all the way with sand, but recommended depth for DSB is 6" max so I will put some plenums in at about 5" the center part will have rocks to the top of the DSB and I will place my corals up from that in the center. I have the 4 way running under the rocks so should have good flow in the center section.

very cool idea, can't wait to see this take shape.
