new 450 gallon

[harris522]

My new 450 gallon tank from fish tanks direct showed up yesterday. I got it mostly set up. I need a little more Teflon tape for a bulk head on one of the return pumps. And some airline for the air pump. The filter is a wet dry tsunami filter. With two supreme aqua mag magnetic drive pump's 1200 gph each. I also have a fruval fx6 that I'll be moving to this tank. The fx6 is on my Ray tank. So the rays will be making the move with the filter.

If the lids an indication that looks about 1"

I was thinking that about the top but the sides looked thinner? Maybe it is just the angle?

I'm thinking the angle, because at that size anything less than 1" is a real big gamble.

It's size is 96x48x24 inches. The top is 3/4 and sides and bottom are 1/2 inch.

Just picked up a 450 as well, different dimensions, and was wondering if you had any pictures of the wet\dry you are going to use. I'm still in the planning stages and was pondering different filtration options.
