I wasnt going to start a thread but since I spend a lot of time reading over other people's hard work on here I figured some might like to see my work. This tank has been in the works for about 9 months or so and its finally filling with water after a successful leak test. Thanks to everyone who has helped me in one way or another, and especially a huge thanks to those who have helped fund this by buying frags and stuff from me :splitspin

Anyway, enough blah blahing, here are the pics of it as of last night. It is about 1/2 full by now...

Thanks for looking, I plan to have sand added tonight and will hopefully have my rock drilled and in the tank by the weekend.

The stand was built by a friend out in California and was shipped in 3 pieces to me. Honestly I wish it was a bit more reinforced since it was swaying a little bit when I first set it up. But I have since installed a 3/4" ply sheet under the entire stand and shimmed it which stopped the swaying. He did a great job finishing it and making it easy to assemble, just wish the side panels were doubled up and the back had a bit more to it.
