Freakin awesome Damien. We have been needing a good NW style build thread for a while now! You planning on doing a sump or ???

Can't wait to give you a hand on that monster! When do we get started? :popcorn:

IMO a standard 90g or 120g (4x2x2) would be perfect. You'll want to make sure that you have your sump planned out and designed before building your stand. Also, with the 30" height on that tank your going to want to put some though into the head height/pump requirement before building your stand as well because that will affect your overall stand design.

ps - The guys over at "Saltwater Fanta-Seas" on NE Sandy usually have some smokin good deals on big sumps and high flow pumps, used. ;) Talk to Patrick the owner, he has allot of things in storage or I can if you like, we just need to figure out what your looking to do first.
 
you got that tank here in salem?? didnt even know anyone here was that into fish, haha. Gonna be an awesome tank man, and Hello to my fellow NW MFKs
