I wanted to share these pictures of a 48''x30''x15'' Penninsula style tank. it features a very thin brace with one single large port hole for a great top down tank!

check out pics and have a blessed day!!!!

close up of the clearity of our joints in our aquariums! this is not only cosmetic, it also means a much stronger joint then those mass produced tank manufacturers...

close up of our very detailed work in our radius corners in the top brace which is superior to others! this is part of what allows us to warranty our craftsmenship for 5 years!

I still dont think you are going to have room for the carpet and you are going to have to give it to me:lol:

Matt great job again. I just wish you could do glass so we could get a
72x48x20 going.
 
im not sure but i think the holes is in the bottom of the overflow?
not sure about this..i know nothing about that stuff...:oops:i only know how to buy corals:lol::D

maybe matt can tell us more about it...my husband knows about how the set up will go but hes not home yet to answer any questions about the tank
 
Thanks everyone!

The return holes are in the sides of the OFB at the top. I Believe they will be using locline nozzels...

Cheers!

please tell me that tank is going to be a closed loop with the ports through the bottom. It would be a shame to clutter up the sides of that with powerheads.

I believe they will be using a combo of vortechs on the black end along with the returns in the ofb...
