so i'd just like to point out that knowing grizz's track recored with tanks i would love to be the first one on the buyers list when and if this tank ever goes up for sale... amazing job so far!

Cool Thanks Josh I will check it out on one of my trips back from Calgary this week.

That sounds like a sweet tank as well

Hey I resemble that comment :razz: This tank is a keeper the wife will not let me go bigger. But there might be a another tank build at some point in time for my office.:biggrin:

So nothing really to update, had to stall for a short time because of shortage of cash, really need to sell my other tanks that are posted.

Plus I have to get my 65 hex set-up and plumbed with the 20 gal sump and CPR overflow in order to get my 75 corner empty.

Will update as soon as possible once I get more done.

Little update got the hole's drilled in the bottom of the tank for the closed loop. Now I can go get the bulkheads and PVC fitting's required.

Any thoughts on a stocking list?

Everything that is in my 155 Bow Front will be going into it but there is a few more fish I would like to get, like a Powder Blue & Naso Tang & Koran Angel.

Lookin good Greg!......I noticed the beautifully cut holes in the plywood under the tank..... I would think about going bigger with those holes....when I cut my openings I left 1" from the outside edge of the bulkhead and it is very difficult to get a wrench in there for that last 1/4 turn you need to "seat" the bulkhead:wink:

Oh that will happen once the tank comes off after all the plumbing is done. I am making sure that all the plumbing can come apart & so that the bulkheads can be removed. That way the tank can slide off stand and onto sawhorse's so I can finish the wood work. :wink:

So I pulled the tank off the stand tonight and cut the bulk head hole's bigger with a jigsaw to allow better access. Also went to Totem & Home Hardware to pick-up the remaining trim, hardware & some stain to finish the stand.

Decided to go with a OM 4 way for the closed loop, should have it hopefully Monday, as well as the bulkheads. If all goes well tank will be operational by next weekend.

More pics to come soon.
