Tank

This tank was built by Concept Aquatics.









Sump

LOL - In all it's glory. It's the only tank that fits in the stand.



I installed a piece of plywood on the top and reinforced the stand with lots of 2x4's.



I then painted it with an outdoor semi-gloss paint. I wish I could stain it but I don't have a garage and its way too cold outside (for the varnish to cure).



The tank will have a layer of Oolite sand. Knowing how much water flow I intend to have, I decided to paint the bottom glass with a sand color acrylic paint. That way, it won't look so bad.





I am just waiting for the paint to cure, then I'll start the mockup plumbing.
