Start of armatus & Ray 450 gallon

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
looking great. can't really work out where it's positioned in the room though. can't wait to see it stocked.
 
very nice...awesome set up.

Only thing I would have changed is the location of the overflow. Seeing that you have the full front and back access for visibility the overflow would have been perfect on the left hand side by the wall. Then you would have 3 sides of clear visibility. Nevertheless very nice job. Your Armatu's I'm sure will be happy.

i would have liked to do that even though i didnt even think of it. though the back side is laundry/storage room so i wanted it hidden. thanks for the replies. here is the tank w new wood and backround. now all i need is for the temp to get up to 80.

Oh... well that makes sense now, specially you added a back ground. For my 600 I wish I had the bottom black in addition to the two sides.

Again, very nice tank. Can't wait to see that Armatus in the 2 foot mark =-)
 
very nice, hopefully you can get a top swimmer for your armatus to get along with..

i should have thought about a colored bottom too. i can see finger prints on the bottom.
 
I just ordered a Tenecor and they said to would look crappy with a piece of black acrylic on the bottom. The reason I was told is because you would be able to see the glue between the front and side panels where the black panel was installed, since the black panel would be just a lamanate.

I was told to paint the bottom.
