So i'm in the process of planning my new build. Tank is a 150 gallon 60x24x24.
Next item on the list is the stand, my main concern will be to have access to the sump area, I'm a larger guy, 17 years of football ~ and I don't fit into tight spaces all that well.
First question,
1. Would I be able to get away without having a center brace on the front of the tank? (I'm not very builder savvy, but friends are, but i'd like to have a little more knowledge)
2. I'd like it to be a little taller, maybe around 40 inches for better viewing I'm 6'2, What size lumber should I go with?
3. Does anyone have any schematics/drawings?
4. Anyone know of any good links to stand builds I could steal ideas from.
5. If you could do your stand over again, what changes would you make?
Thanks again,
Happy Reefing.
