Default LOOKS GREAT!

Wow congrats on the the tank, etc getting built. Did you stay with the 96x36x27 dimensions you were planning? Hard to tell from the picture.

Yeah I did Greg and I really really love it. The other big one was nearly as big but was 84x36x30 and I'm digging the look of this far more.

Yours holds more water tho...this thing is all 19mm!

I like the dims of the 404 better as well. An extra 12" of length and 27" is a heck of a lot easier to work with than 30". Good choice Brett.

Nothing new to really report yet. Bracing hasn't quite happened yet but I'll shoot pics when it does. I am however working down here fulltime now. Got my little office area insulated and my trusty little floor heater can actually keep me warm now.

Sorry for skipping out on you last sunday, being lazy is one of our other favorite hobbies lol, but i guess we'll just have to come over Wednesday night and get the braces put on so you can give your peeps some update pics
