Awesome build!! One day i will have a tank that big!
Do you have any more detailed pics of your window supports? Were you framing the window in? If so how did you do that? Or does the acrylic rest on the boards I saw in the pics?

Sweet build!

When I see these large footprint ray tanks, I always think they would be neat with ramps to little landing areas like you see in small animal cages. Has anyone thought about doing that with cheap, thin acrylic? It might be pretty cool if the rays use them.

Very Nice Build!!Very simple and clean. IMO the lumber being stacked is bullet proof!! Very strong build can not compare your basic stud wall with ply to those 2x4s stacked like that!

I dont know south of the boarder but where I am Plywood is very expensive and cost of standard stud wall with ply tank would not be very much cheaper then this build, and with this build you save a lot more time. Very nice.

One thing I would say that I would do is just for that bonus overkill add spikes (nails) and glue to the 2x4 walls.

Thanks for sharing!
