Plans

[pogona]

Ok, after having the 110 rr tank with corner flow sitting in the garage (in the box still) for over a month. The wife finally said "I don't care what it costs, just get the tank setup so I can park in the garage again."

So with that being said, does anybody have plans for a 90 gal tank.

I think the dimensions are 48x18.

I just went and bought a tablesaw on Saturday and will be buying a router this coming Saturday.

I currently have 4 20 longs and an extra 75 that I was going to use as a multi sump system.

Does anybody know who can drill these, I do not have a steady hand and don't trust myself to do so.

Whats the 90 for? DO you need one? I dont have one.

I would use the 75 as a sump fuge and forget the 20's.

Have a skimmer?

I think marine solutions will drill tanks. But for a sump/fuge you wont need to drill anything. Your display is rr so your good to go.

the 110 has the same exact dimensions as the 90 except it is 30" tall

that is why I am looking for plans for a 90 or even a 75.

The 75 is currently cooking live rock right now, that is why I can't use it as a sump.

As far as the 20's go, I had planned on running a couple of fuges, for example, have one with a dsb with cheato, have another with miracle mud and mangroves, and another one for a skimmer, and no I don't have a skimmer yet. I am still looking. I haven't decided how many total gallons I will be running yet, and I don't want to get a skimmer that is underated for the system.

So if anybody has plans for a 75/90/110 I would greatly appreaciate them.

A friend of mine in Charleston, MO has a canopy that will fit that tank. Thought I would let you know

Marino420td,

It was actually your tank, or I should say, your stand and canopy, is what gave me the idea to build my own stand.

My buddy also builds custom guitars and has access to rare and exotic woods, and I am planning on either using lacewood or Brazillian Satinwood.

The multiple sumps works if you have the room there is not really a lot of room under the stands once you start putting things under it.

Building your own stand is fun. I have built a lot of them, one of the things that I started doing now is building them taller so you don't have to bend over to look in the tank.

 

[marino420td]

Yeah I remember you saying you wanted to build your own. Those exotic woods will look great. But man won't that get expensive?

I have decided to go with Brazilian Satinwood. I had my friend place my first order the other day. He currently can only get it in 4" x 4" x 20'. I am going to cut it down so it will be 1" x 4". So out of every 4" x 4" x 20' I will get 80' of 1x4's to use.

However, my order might fall through though. It is currently on a list of woods that are currently being harvested illegally. I don't want that. If all else falls through, I will just end up using Ponderosa Pine.
