Pretty awesome, more details on how you strengthened it? I think 2 55's would be fairly easy, cheap, and pretty conventional for some cooler small fish like puffer community, african cichlids, or some smaller south american cichlids like firemouths.

That looks pretty sweet. I agree that the 12inch depth isnt enough but this could be an amazing communtiy tank. So many possibilities due to the water volume. I hope it holds. Good luck!

yestardy we drained the tank and did all the plumbing, now we just gotta get it inside! since we wanted the tank to be as self sustaining as possible the return flows into a reverse flow undergravel system that runs the length of the tank.
