I bet that it cost about the same amount in gas money to drive to pick up the tank in that H2 as the tank itself cost,hahaha. I drive a Dodge Ram 4x4 and it was almost $60 last time I filled up. God Bless gasoline.

Tank in stand.

 

I also have a matching cherry canopy that has been retro'd with 2x175w mh's and i believe 2x110w vho's. Thinking of saving some money and using that. Need to get it down from my attic.

Wait till you see the matching cherry top. It will crack you up. Such a nice stand and canopy for a prop tank... :P

 

Again, the stand and top where used with my old 120g reef tank that I had to break down and give away due to a relocation.

Remember, the stand was originally designed to hold a 120g tank. Didn't want to spend more money on a new stand just for a prop tank... You should see it with the canopy on. Talk about short! :P

 

I think I will rename it my 'low rider' prop tank.

 

Will post a pic later tonight.

Here's a pic with the matching cherry canopy. It is lit with 2x175w mh's and 2x110w vho's. All bulbs need to be replaced due to age. I am thinking of just running 2x175w 20k's and not lighting the vho's.

 

Also, you can see that I painted the back of the tank black today. Going to pick up some bulk heads tomorrow.

 

It kind of looks like a 'low rider' prop tank when you see it live. :P

VMA. I picked these up the day that you were there. I must have spent an hour just putting the pieces (and others) together in different configurations..... Too many options. I still may change it again!

Pic of my durso standpipe attached to a 1.5" bulkhead. I have not drilled the hole on the top end cap (or attached it). Will probably do this last.
