Well if you need a hand when it comes time to move it I know I'm game to make a drive to help and take a look at your setups!
Me and the guy I bough the 3'×8'×3/4" glass from carried it up from his basement then my cousin and I moved the piece of glass in our house. I am not looking forward to moving it again. I have everything expensive for a plywood build just need the space and 2x4s

Wow that's a piece of Glass!!! Lol . I believe how heavy that must be. It's crazy the weight difference from half inch to 5/8 so from 5/8 to 3/4 is huge difference

Your build looks very well thought out and it looks clean and solid...stand as well.

Will you eventually have Styrofoam between tank and stand?

It looks like the stand is plywood and foam on top of a frame of 2x6s. Looks like it should support it well I'd think. I saw the foam right away, had to look twice to see the plywood.

Lol, the thing is filling up a glass home made tank is very scary with at least a month of hard to sleep nights lol. It's nothing like filling up a miracles brand new tank lol. Thanks man wish I went bigger.
