oh ya thats sweet.....


like mentioned sonofgabriel has an amazing cube as well....does anyone have a link or some pics. Maybe he'll notice this thread.
 
One of my LFS (Upscales)has a 4x4x3 (something like that around 300 gallons - I believe). But the one thing that I know for sure is that it is a wonderful looking tank!! Cubes are really cool if you have the space for them.
 
CWARD- WOW!!!..Could you please tell us about your tank's specs, lighting and all that fun stuff??..I love it!..

How is acrylic working for you?..easy to clean?..any scratching problems??
 
Thank you for the compliments. As far as tank specs go:
Outside dimensions are 51"X49.5"X25" with a 6.5"X32"X16" external overflow, and it's mounted as an inwall tank with a 12'X13' equipment room behind the tank. The acrylic is 3/4" sides with 1/2" bottom and eurobrace. The acrylic is not that bad, but next time I will go with starfire glass.
I'm using 4-400w (2-20k/2-14k) bulbs in Lumenarc 3 reflectors that pretty much take the entire top of the tank up, so I had to mount the lights in an aluminum sliding canopy to gain access into the tank.

As far as flow goes, I'm using a Sequence Hammerhead with a OM 4-way as a closed loop, a Tunze 6100 and 6200 with a multi controller, and an Ampmaster 3600 for the return feeding the tank, 100g refugium and a 60g remote DSB.
