What are you going to do for a stand? Lights?

Here's my steel stand, it's going to be painted the same color as my walls and left Open and empty.

And I have an 8bulb sunpower, I'm thinking adding a reefbrite xho strip and calling it a day.

Nice I have been waiting for this build thread after I seen tank was pending to you. LOL I like the white stand and baffles on the sump. Too bad you can't have a white back on the tank. LOL

Looks real good David. How did the stand builder do?

 

[Riblet]

It's solid 2"box and 1/4" gussets, I would put my truck on it...but it not the same level of finish or as pretty as I have seen from shops that build only for reefing needs. But I knew what I was getting and I paid less.

Add 6 adjustable leveling feet to my stand, next some paint.

 

[Riblet]

Decided to go with powder coating instead of paint,went with a wrinkled black finish.

Looking badass, give a holler if you need a hand wrestling it onto the stand or whatever.

Thanks, I will be needing help to get this into the house. It has to fit through the door with about half an inch clearance.....should be fun lol.

Yes sir! Not yet but as soon as I get my new tank running I'm letting it go. So if you know anyone interested let me know.

I sure will, you shouldn't have any problem selling that set up considering you can't even buy that same tank anymore.It's a gorgeous tank!!
