Beautiful stand. Can't wait to see it finished.

How big will you sump be ? Will it fit through the front ?

Thanks!

I'm hoping to get the stand finished by next weekend, as I've finally got all the stuff for the doors now.

I'm thinking the sump will be around the 20-30gallon mark and probably a smallish refugium. If it doesn't fit through I'll just remove the front brace in the middle - it's not structural at all. Could be fun getting it out though because in a fit of madness I glued it.

Cool. Someone was definitely thinking !!

I build my stand with removable ends so I can slide in my sump for my 120gal.

Unfortunately, my center brace is structural because of the length of the tank 5'.

GREAT JOB. Post photos when your stand is completed !!

Finally done - didn't want to hijack this thread so photos are posted on my tank log

I've also redrawn my plans so if anyone's interested I can post them.
