Got the tank on the stand and got a coat of paint on the back. Tomorrow I will do a couple more coats of paint and then move the setup back into its final spot. Level and shim the stand. Wash 200 pounds of sand and fill it up. Can’t wait! View attachment 1416451

Perhaps lighting, and the stand in this picture looks even better with a few more coats? Nice Job.

You’re right I noticed that too. That’s what it really looks like in person compared to the pictures I posted earlier. Thanks!

Got the tank in place and shimmed it. The floor is pretty bad but got it perfectly level. I will check to be sure its level after putting the sand and some water into it before breaking off the shims. Now for the fun part... washing sand haha

Filling it up now. Just threw some rocks in there for now until I get some driftwood then I will scape it.

Just one 48” Fluval Aqua Sky. Pretty decent light for the money. And it’s nice you control everything with the app from your phone and set the time for sunrise and sunset.

How long's the tank? Are you going to do plants? Good plant light.
