New "Monster" Setup! (Pictures) 56k.... go take a bath.

[House 64]

Might as well order right now the tanks for the underside of the racks...you'll get them anyway ( we all do )

I got a quote but holy moly are they expensive! (and that was tanks of 33"x33"x20"). Need to work on the filtration first then I'll work on adding more tanks.

Looks good Sean - answer your phone!

Too busy working bro... this is a snack break!

hey sucka, you should re-do everything as start from scratch......looks nasty
Looks good. How many tanks did you order? 450 g right?

Are you trying to screw with my mind! I already regret not ordering 48"W tanks! They're actually only 270g. tanks.

Two racks in place..... Plywood cut to fit but still need to have a clear coat brushed on to keep it moisture proof. (Side note..... Plywood is freaking expensive!)

Stand foot pads are padded with a rubber grip to prevent scratching up my floors or leaving an indentation in the epoxy coating..... minor details.

Looks awesome! Can't wait myself to see some tanks..

Going to heat the whole room or still use heaters?

If I had a setup like this, I would try somehow to hookup external Ultima II Bead Filters and external 8400gph pumps, maybe UV's (if $ was no option) bare tanks and boat loads of fish..

Forget that whole idea, lets work on a fast water changing system

Changing 50 gallons 2X a day on my new 150G bare tank with 10 wakin goldies, I have them on Dainichi KOI food and there little poop machines.

this what they look like

Whoever built those stands is very meticulous. Great looking craftsmanship. Excited to see how it progresses.

I thought the same thing when I looked at the feet of the stands..

Oh, money is an issue.... that's why I didn't go 48"wide.... I would have had to go .75" acrylic! I'm still going to use heaters.... can't heat the whole room bc if I opened the garage once, all the heat will escape. I live really close to the beach so it gets chilly here, that's why I got rid of all my glass tanks! I gave away my beaded filter to my brother, it would have been nice to have it but I've had issues with a central sump system before with bad results.... but I didn't have a UV.
