Pool is off limit's, the wife does not want to swim with fishes and the cost of the salt can't even guesstimate what that would cost. I would have to open it up to the public and charge admission

Any updates possible Greg? Ever find an eel? What does the stand look like? Did you use a canopy over the top? Etc. etc.

Sorry Tony nothing really new to report on this tank. It is still up and running but have not had time or the money to finish it the way I would like.

Need to close in the stand, build a canopy and get a little better light for it or just mod the one I have. It is a little long of the tank but I think I can cut a couple inches off it to make it work.

No Snow Flake Ell just yet. I have been thinking of turning this tank into a Zoa tank and moving my Preds to a bigger tank I have in my office but not sure just yet. The wife says I am not allowed to put any more tanks or bigger ones in the house so it would have to be out in the office.

Well the old 67 gal will soon be a 90 Gallon starfire tank - Eurobraced, rear external overflow, 2 X 1.5" holes for drains, 2 X 1" holes drilled in eurobrace for returns.36"L X 18"D X 31"H. I will have to build a new stand the the wife insists it has to be 100% complete before I can bring it into the house. I will also have to build a new sump and hope that this one will be a little better.

Pic's to follow when I get the tank.

That's an interesting shape, same footprint but major upgrade in height. Why would you need a new stand if the footprint is the same?
