Actually 618G ... 96W X 48D X 31H ... I was going to go 32 or 33 high and then remembered my old tank was 34H with a 31 waterline and it was a pain to reach the bottom ( almost had to take a breath )

holy cow that's huge! how are you going to light that behemoth, or is it going to be a FO shark tank or something?

let me guess. You're going to have a 400 gallon tank in your basement rather than a sports car in your garage?

nice to know it was close to what you estimated for the side panels. Again, the bottom calculation is if it's supported by a steel frame, with no plywood under the tank.

If I was building a tank that large, I'd build a plywood tank myself.

thanks. addapting the code to php took no time at all. Remembering html and css is what's slow, for me. I haven't actually designed and coded a web page for over a year I think...
