Very nice. :cool: Did you have to shore up your floor at all to accomodate the weight of a 230?

b_james 07-24-2006 09:35 PM

Yes.. Because the joists run lengthwise to the tank, I added 2 more joists as well as two 2X8 studded bearing walls directly under the centerline on the tank - Basically a 16" thick studded wall with a 2X8 bearing wall running the width of the tank forming a 'T' wall under the centerline of the tank. The other end closest to the window sits directly over the concrete foundation wall as my livingroom is cantalevered out 24"

The setup looks great, especially the rockwork on the stand.
What do you all have in there for livestock?

:biggrin:

Beautiful! Well made and designed! The tank itself is really clean looking too! Nice island. Now I cant wait to throw the one for my parents together in their new house!

I love the look of room dividers/peninsula tanks! I think it's cuz you can see through them to the other side of the tank. Makes the water look so clear and the fish appear to be suspended in air. Almost like they are swimming around the room....... Very nice tank by the way. A work of art! :D

WOW! That looks really great! Like to rock work for the stand. How many lbs of rock for the stand? Aquascaping looks nice too.

That's pretty amazing. I like it. I'm guessing that's rock veneer. I was looking to get some for my wall.
