Well I ended up shimming my stand, since it was a little off. Filled it up and then spent the whole day chasing leaky fittings. I knew I should have spent a little more on better teflon tape.
Damn thing took almost 2 hours to fill using a garden hose.
I have 3 kids in a small 3 bedroom house right now a bigtank will come later. And we are taking fish tanks into consideration while we are looking for a new house
Lookin good. One recommendation though. Instead of using those big 2x4's as lateral support. I recommend using steel cable. It will look much nicer and you will have more room to work under your tank. Whats substrate and fish are going in?
