10' long tanks anyone?

[Chihuahua6]

Does anyone have a tank ten feet long? I am buying a new house that has a great spot for an inwall tank right in the kitchen eating area. The area behind it is the laundry room, just like my other house, a perfect location to hide the equipment.

I will only be able to recess about 4" of tank into the room, plus the 4" for the wall. I only want 12" max to stick out into the room. Because the tank can't be very deep I need to sell my 30" deep 280 and have a new one built.

So I figured I would have a tank built measuring 96 x 20 x 25. Then I thought why not make it 120" long? I would love to see a pic of a tank with similar dimensions.

I know there is a 12' long tank build on the DIY forum but I can't find the link. I believe another person there has a long tank but again I don't have the link.

So if anyone has a very long tank to show or can kindly link me to one I would appreciate it.

I have a 10 ft tank. The only FT shot I have. This is when it was put in the room. 120L x 36W x 30T.

Chris that is the thread I was referring to. I have read most of it, amazing set up.

Znut that tank is gorgeous. Is it running? Do you have any pics of it running? I can just imagine my three Pyramid Butterflies swimming the length of a ten foot tank. They would love it.

Thanks. Yes it is running. It's mainly sps and some lps corals. I haven't taken any pics of it it. It has alot of filling in to do.

Is the tank your selling still on HHI? Not that I really need another tank but I might have to take a look. I've got an 11 foot 750 system in wall that I set up last december, when I get a chance I'll post some pics.

Fishboy I just moved near Columbia SC, not too far away. If I knew about your tank when I lived in Bluffton I would invite myself over to see it. Please post some pics!

BTW which restaurant do you own?
