Can't wait till the new year. I am expecting a new 750g Tenecor to show up on 1/3. Stand building will start this weekend. I will update with some stand shots as progress rolls along.

Also it will be going im my garage, I know my garage floor slopes a bit for drainage. Any recommendations on how to shim the stand, and what type of foam to use under the tank (if any should be used at all)

Damn Chad.......750 gal huh..nice
 
The guy that made my tank told me I had to use the foam insulation sheets from home depot in order for him to uphold any warranty on the tank. So that's what I used. The pink one is 1/2" I think?

I'd set up and test with a laser level.
 
call tenecor and ask them what they recommend and get the persons name!!. this way if any problems arise later down the road you can say that you spoke to mr so and so and he said to use this method of shimming and this type of foam insulation so there will be no excuse for them to find a reason not to warranty anything due to improper installation.
 
Sweet. Can't wait to see it done.

This doesn't hold any water when problem arises... Bottom line, it was only recommended. They have been in the business for so long to know not to shoot their own feet :D
 
just my 2cents but if you were to build it were it is going to be you could build the slope into it.
 
sweet looking forward to the finished product whats the dimensions??
