Very nice job. I have one question however. From the pictures it looks as if you added 2x4's to the front as bracing after the tanks were installed. This would trap the tanks in place and make it necessary to break down all three tanks to replace just one of them unless I'm wrong.
 
You are right, i do have another 2x4 in the front which is bloking the tanks. The thing i did was just use 3in screws to hold the two front ones in place that way its easy to remove the tanks when i need to.
 
These are going to be for breeding purposes. But since my 240, 135, 125 are not set up yet i cant have breeding at the moment.
 
Nice, very clean look.

Not alot of lateral support for 3/4 of a ton but if all the fish don't swim in the same direction at the same time you may be ok :D (I've got little ones aound from time to time so I think I'd bolt it to the wall ;).

Nice design...looks VERY sturdy. that would make an exelent breeding set up. I need something similar for 4 60's in the next year or so thats why the questions... We live in earthquake country so those braces are a great idea.
