Thank you very much. Looks like the tank will fit now I just need to work up a stand for it. Any suggestions for water movement?

As requested. The tank is 7 months old. Most of the coral came from my previous 24g cube and Craigslist.

Thanks! This is actually the first time I've posted a picture of it online.

This is my new corner tank. Its a 54g Aqueon RR. I know its a piece of cardboard but I should be getting the actual tank next week. Then I will be building a stand to fit the strange corner the corner tank is going into.
What's nice about that corner is that you'll have room behind the tank in that wedge to store extras. I have a very limited space under my tank to put my sump, power etc...

That's a very odd shaped corner, but it does make a perfect spot for a tank! That's gonna be awesome
I went with the Eheim compact+ 2000. It should give me 5 to 6 times turn over. Most my flow will be from power heads.

How do you guys clean the front glass?
I use a strong magnet on a weekly basis, but over time I am having some build up in the corners, and I cant seem to reach them. Keep in mind, my tank is 30" deep. Any suggestions?

Looks good, just needs water and fish.
Fishnthecorner, I use a scrapper for the corners aside from the reg magnet cleaner
Nice additions Misled. I just added a few guys too, I have to post them too?
What do you guys think is the max bio load for our corner tanks... a 92 in my case?

i'm looking to redo my 92 corner bow thats been set up for about 10yrs and my bigest problem with it is the tiny 20g sump that sits in the aga pine stand so im thinking of basicly turning the stand into the sump, i allready have solid 3/4ply wood on the bottom and sides of the stand that is sealed with west system epoxy that i added to the stand when it was new so it's just a mater of taping the seems with epoxy/glass tape and adding a board or peice of glass across the front and seal the whole thing to form a triangle sump in the stand with room for a filter sock and a good skimmer that won't fit in the little 20g sump i have been forced to use becouse of the shape of this stand.
so has any one else tried building a sump into their corner tank?
