Looking good!
I did the same thing to create an false "L" tank. My only suggestion on it is don't put any items you need to access frequently in the back corner. I had one of my sumps in that area and it was a pain to change out mech. media or do any type of maintence back there...lol.

Haha! I was actually thinking about exactly that issue last night! I'm thinking I could set up a trap door system under the 360 so I could crawl to the back. Of course, I may not do it all. But I laughed as soon as I read your post.
It's actually raining right now, so not so cold. Chaitika;2768524; said:Haha! I was actually thinking about exactly that issue last night!

LOL..you would have laughed even more to see me contort myself underneath the tank stands to change out filter floss.
Can't wait to see the finished product.
No, it certainly wouldn't be anything needing regular maintenance back there. It's just that if the empty space is 3x2, I can use that space for storing items or something. Considering the size of the fishroom, its a big space to be sitting empty.
