This is excellent. I only made it thru half of the thread but did you have a list of all the materials you used? I’m looking into doing a build in my basement because I can’t get a big enough tank down the steps

No i sure dont. I estimated the cost around 3500 for everything back in the day. I dont think i skimped on anything though, but the front glass was a used piece. Better to be overbuilt then have it fail, at least with this application

genius pure genius

Cant take credit on that one. Never executed it fully. But still drains, pumps, filter system is mostly the same basic principle as it was 6+ years ago

Awesome build. I have always loved to check out the massive tank at Bass Pro and have always thought how cool it would be to have a tank like that in my home and you have done exactly that and your married???????? Have no idea how you pulled that off but does your wife have any good lookin sisters, lol!!!!
Congrats
