Default My dream tank

Well it has been a year in planning....

My new home is ready for possession next week, my tank is built and my cabinetry is almost ready to be installed.

The tank is a 190 gallon starfire 24" high, 30" front to back and 5' in length. It has an external overflow on each end with a durso standpipe. all plumbing will run into the side cabinets and down the a fishroom in the basement. The tank will be located on the main floor in my office with viewing into the great room as well.

The cabinetry is being built by Rob Craig at Majestic Aquariums.

I will post a series of pictures over the next few weeks as the tank and cabinets are installed and the fish room is built.

Sweet. I love the idea of having two external overflows on each end of the tank. Brilliant.
