Stand Height???

36" is a great size because all your skimmer and equipment can fit in it.

Not to mention your tank will be at eye leve.

45" on a 375 gallon (30" tall) :eek1:

I have to admit that this is an imposing height, but it's ideal for a 3-sided viewing tank.
 
Take into consideration the ceiling and height (and way to open)the canopy. My 210g is sitting on a 40" stand, like the others I did not want the bending over all of the time. My canopy is 15" plus the stand, plus the tank - does not leave a lot of room over top.
 
I'm making mine 43", which is standard bar height. There will be a bar in front of the tank, with bar stools. If you want to sit and view, you can have a beer while doing so.

The tank will only be 24"H, and I still don't have much room before I hit the 8' ceiling.

........ you'll have problem putting in tall skimmer or removing skimmer collection cup, calcium reactor, co2 tank and mini frig.


Sounds familiar to me setting up my 125...tried using a 55gallon sump......not happening.
 
ronkent- did u already buy the 55?

-stinks if you did...but I guess its hard to have the forsight to know what will and wont fit. :)

thats a great idea. I might have to steal that someday when I actually can build an in wall tank.
