I have already built my solid wood stand intended for a 60 x 24 x 24 (150gal) island acrylic tank. I will attempt to post some pics soon. I am now thinking (girlfriend's input) that the tank should be taller, at 30in for better viewing.
My main concerns now are with the tank design are; noise, flow, and aquascaping so I can hide as much of the plumbing as possible from all four sides. This is my first SW tank and my first custom.
I want to do it right but the more I read and research on this forum, I wonder if this project is doable.
Please let me know if what you all think about the design and any concerns you have. The thought is to have one overflow in the center of the tank with a dry conduit for the lighting. I am completely clueless on the closed loop design that would not be an eyesore since it will be an island.
I am assuming all of the plumbing will have to go through the bottom but can I come up with a design that will work amongst the LR?
Fire away!
