Default The Begin or End real Tank for Coleus

Well, I am the man with not a lots of words so I will use pictures to tell "thousand words"

So got a green flag from wife to go ahead with my final upgrade (after lots of yes maam, right away maam) and here it goes








It is a 120"x22"x30" tank so it is probably close to 300 gallon tank. :-)

Thanks to Dave@ concept to help me build tank, and Dennis and his buddy,Kevin, to help me setting this up, weeeee. More coming.... soon i hope

This is how i hauled my stand home, just like a boss

This is great I'm hoping to do a 10 footer in the next year or so built into a wall similar to your setup. Will your filtration be under the tank or in a separate room?
