75 Gallon Buildin Wall Thread

[BichirAddict]

Hey, I just pickup my 75 gallon yesterday and will hopefully start building within 2 weeks.
Here are the pics of the tank and the spot in will going in.




The current tank will be moved somewhere else and the 75 will be against the same wall and poking thru the other side.

Interesting stand design there. Is it just me, or do the studs in the first pic look extremely crooked?
