Pic of when I got the tank on the half finished stand. The tank is 96"Lx36"Wx30"T and the stand is 2x6s and 4x4s with 1"
Plywood top and foam board. I have buffed the acrylic out to
my liking and scraped off the old saltwater crude. I had to do a minor fix to the top brace but holds water great with issues for ten monthes now.
 
I can't wait to see this one finished! What are your plans?

Sorry for the bad pic but it gives you all an idea of where Im at. Bare bottom right now but when the new family room is done and I move it in there I plan on a sand and flagstone bottom and some more plants and driftwood. My stock is doing great with no issues and all but the crappie on frozen food that I make. Not sure on the final stock but as of now I have one of each, LMB, sand bass, bluegill, green, green x bluegill hybrid, longear, and white crappie. I have a small Texas Rio in a grow out that I plan on adding to the crew. Im thinking 10-12 total fish. Filter is a DIY wet dry with a Hammerhead pump and 2x Eheim 2260. No lighting as of now will add that when I move it the the family room. Any input would be great. Planning on a built in bar with the Native Tank in the center.

The bar-tank will be inside. You might know the sand bass as a white bass but they are the same. Thanks for bring up the catfish. Would a bullhead be my best option or could I do a channel cat?
