very nice! anything else goin in there? It looks empty.. Oh i have a idea for the stand. instead of havin the blocks in a dirrfrent direction. y not make it like a solid big block?
 
um thank you

well right now i am still kinda cycling it
but after that
ther is going to be two jaguar cichlids,red devil,asian redtail cat,spotted gar,albino tiger oscar! for like a couple months

then after that my channa come

:]

umm ya i was thinkng about that and i will be doing that in the next few months

tank is still not complete

still need to add another xp4 and emp 280 also lights and plants!!
 
Nice tank.

Word of advice though... LEVEL that tank out before you have 210 gallons in your garage. That is seriously off center bro.

Nice gar too. ;)
 
ya i know i was going to do that this weekned

oh and thank you
 
Very nice, I just got a 180g and I am building the same type stand myself. Not that I think you stand will fail, but you have your cinder blocks sideways and in that position they only have 1/4 the strength as if they are placed correctly.
 
well my cinder block are in differnt positions to get the best support
 
your gonna need a bit more filtration that a rena and an emp.. Those are great for cycling but later i would suggest a FX5(first personal choice) with those others, or build your own sump(2ndpersonal choice)

your varying locations of blocks is fine. The blocks are designed to be placed in such a manner so that you can not see the "holes" in the block. When placed the should give the apearence of a solid block.

yes i will be adding more filtration

like i said another xp4 and maybe an xp3 and another emp 280



the blocks will stay like that because i am to lazy to re-arange them

and i will be adding a black cloth to hide them anyways

but thank you
