Yet another pic of a box in a box...
Ha Ha Ha I guess it's still far more original than a cube or the same old rectangle with a few minor tweaks... LoL I had all of those, we just thought the True Drop L might add some challenge and visual interests... Deep end softies.. Shallow SPS... But I mean not to knock those tanks at all, anyone in salt is Grade A to me! Sent Via Pirate Ship.......

I get what you're saying about trying to keep things a little more authentic but personally I don't see the point. If you build the stand properly there is no way you could tell the difference and you could seal that inner box to eliminate any dead water space. You're paying for the extra glass anyway and on top of that the extra time involved to build it. So for the extra money what exactly are you achieving? Well for one a stress point at the corner of the L which also happens to be the point where the highest bending stress occurs so really not a great combination. The other thing you've achieved is the task of making sure the stand step profile matches the tank perfectly, while perhaps not that difficult it's certainly no advantage. I think going box in box is better option all around, better structural integrity & cheaper.
Anyway love the build so far just didn't seem right IMO to call out other tanks as none drop offs.
