Wes's cube build

[wav0718]

Hello all. I can't believe it has been 4 years since I first joined this site. In that time I have gone through five saltwater tanks. I started with a 29 gallon biocube but quickly upgraded to the 34 gallon solana. After the solana came a Keith Grant frag tank that I used as a shallow reef. From there I upgraded and bought the frag tank from yourreef that I used as another shallow reef. I thought I was moving two years ago and sold the system. I always regretted selling that tank. Well the move never happened and I setup a 45 gallon oceanic tech tank last year. I always wanted to try a cube and now this is my sixth tank. Another Keith Grant custom.

Tank Dimensions
36x36x21
3/4" thick
eurobraced/bottom braced

The tank

The stand (not quite done, planning to add some trim to the bottom and top)

What I hope to achieve with my aquascaping
