I remember the beginning of last year when I had just finished my "huge" 40g system (upgrade from my 12g nano cube) and wondering how I would ever be able to make the tank not look empty. Well, that didn't take too long and here I am upgrading my tank again. This time it better last a few years.
My old 12g Nano Cube The end of 05'
The 40g system was setup in my office workshop where I didn't care too much about the sightliness of the plumbing, lights etc. Well I got married and in the meantime bought a house and moved the tank into it.
The "huge" 40g System
Cabinet
Plumbing that can be seen from the side
The visible plumbing etc got old pretty fast and my wife wanted to have a cabinet made to fit all of it into. After we got the price quote for the cabinet I figured why not do a whole upgrade while I'm at it.
So here I am!
The wall it's going on is only 41" so I had to do more of a "cubish" tank. The next obstical outside of hiding everything was that the system would need to run on a single 15amp circuit shared by a few flood lights in the kitchen that we keep off most of the time.
I contacted SoCalCreations who did a killer job to help build the tank.
