Should I put my tank in the wall?

I'll do a picture journal type thing. I want to wait until my tank is painted and plumbed before I do it though. I also have to make sure I can get this sucker past my furnace.

Nothing special, just two 2" 45's. I used a male adapter to secure it to th wall, and it just sits in a hole cut in the top of the tank.

Still a cool idea! I'd do that but I'm worried my curious nephews and nieces would throw things down it.

I think in wall tanks look so clean.............

When I got my 135g home and placed it where I wanted it I noticed it was as big as the wall so I framed it in with a hidden access door on the side. No need to worry about load bearing when you build a faux wall arround the tank and trim it in all nice. This way you can enjoy 3 sides of the tank and have easy access for feeding and cleaning.

You could mount some small narrow cabnit doors to the wall that open up and allow feeding if you don't want to do it from the back side
