turbofreak403 Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hey guys, starting this tank back up. a house sell and buy and some life things have happened but im finally settling in and i think its time to set her up again. I'm looking at redoing the plumbing to something more simple. a local fish store recommended doing a glass holes overflow (700 with emergency drain) with a eshopps sump. (rs 75) What do you guys think? Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment

turbofreak403 Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 So this happened. The wife and i brought up the stand and could not find a place we were happy with the size or layout of the peninsula style tank. So because of all the work in the stand we decided to adjust the stand to accommodate a Cube style AOI. Let me know what your think! Thinking either the JBJ 45 Gallon or the Innovative Marine 40. Any other suggestions, I'm willing to do a sump if its the right idea. Thanks for the input guys! 3 Quote Link to comment

I was about to comment that this build has the potential to bring back the 40B as the "it tank" again, then saw your new development. You have great woodworking skills, the original stand came out beautifully and still is in its shortened version. It's so easy to screw up that type of modification. Nice work. What are the dimensions of the top? Quote Link to comment
turbofreak403 Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 Thanks for the compliment. It's all my buddy. He's the master behind it all. Top is currently 25" wide by 24.5" deep. The interior portion is 18x18 top can be made larger to accommodate a different Tank. Quote Link to comment

Pinner Reef Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I really like the color of that stand... Like a slate grey or sumthin? Quote Link to comment
turbofreak403 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 It's weathered grey. It looked great in old house. But it's similar to our wall color now so it looks meh. Quote Link to comment
turbofreak403 Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 She's almost ready for water. Just figuring out what heater to run and I'll be good to go!! Quote Link to comment
