![]() well we're in the process of HOUSE HUNTING!!!!
![]() ![]() ![]() This is super exciting, and while I don't know when we actually intend to buy, I do know one thing... There will be a larger tank in the future after all. I want to do a 3'x3'x2' Cube with all the stuff contained in a sump room. It will have glass eurobracing to have the "rimless look" with out all the mess. I have been thinking about this for months since starting my current tank, as to how I would go about doing a larger version of it, and this is what I came up with. Starfire on 3 sides External overflow, to maximize tank space custom DIY LEDs with mounts and here are some mock ups of the LED configuration I drew up last night. I will likely do DIY Leds and try to copy the AI Vega, but more in the Sol's style here is the mounting system I am toying with ![]() ![]() ![]() Double support Approach ![]() ![]() ![]() Personaly I like the 2 bar approach better it looks more supportive as well as balanced. The tank i have planned is 3'x'3'x2' cube so having about 1 1/2 years to plan before I under take it gives me lots of time to tinker. This is just what I came up with last night. The round bar would more then likely be 1" square tubing its just easier to bend round tubing in my program. Kinda gives you a general idea of what I am thinking anyway. the tank would be about 135g and i would rather have more light then I need and just dim rather then not enough. The leds I am thinking would be CREE Cool white 6500k or higher Blue Royal Blue Violet and a couple reds for sunset/sunrise as well as nocturnal viewing. anyways thats just a dream for now, but its a plan as well so this is even better. plus I have the go ahead from the Mrs. when the time comes ![]()
