300 gallon set up

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo

Video update--stock has been added!

The bit when I run through the filter is a bit dark. I am running filter socks and floss, 2 square feet of k1, and two jebao dct 12000 pumps at half speed.

The stand is still a work in progress.
 
I love this aquarium, the stock and the plants are perfect buy I'm not a fan of the catfish in there personally. the stand looks good, wrap it in some pine and it will look sharp. here's my 150 stand, message me if your interested in the cost etc.
 
Definitely interested in checking it out. The "upload a file" tab next to "post reply" is how I've been doing it.
 
The striped Raphael is definitely really random. My girlfriend fell in love with it at my friends lfs a few years ago and we've had it ever since. I want to replace it with a giraffe cat or two. I'm planning on picking up a datnoid and a either a pair of pbass or a few discus.

it was very simple actually. here's the inside stand, it was steel tubular wrapped in pine. the upper part is two different pieces. there's the thinner 1 inch trim with the upper lip that is pre made so you don't need a router. the pine plywood was wrapped around the stand first except the back that was just covered in a cheaper particle board. then the doors were created to the size I wanted. on the bottom there is a thinner strip of pine that gives it the leg look, I believe 1/4" attached right to the steel stand. then the doors were just Italian carved and hinges and knobs were added. that was basically it
