90 Gallon Custom Tank... Build Thread!

That's exactly why I went with a DIY sump... It's the largest I could fit under a standard 90 gallon Stand.
 
That's exactly why I went with a DIY sump... It's the largest I could fit under a standard 90 gallon Stand. I would go with a 40 Breeder though
 
Because my tank is only 35" long and I wouldn't be able to fit my sump under there without strange woodwork... and I just like the look of it LOL
If you go back to my CAD drawings you'll see how I have a 36x30 tank on a 46x36 stand

It's not "Complete" (Minor Bracing and Grinding left to do as well as painting) But the main frame is complete and I may have to put the tank on it later today just for kicks

note the tabs to hold it on in case I sell it to someone in say San Francisco and there's an earthquake... small insurance
 
As of right now... No.
