Looking nice. Gotta love the big tanks. Don't regret mine at all
 
Out of curiosity, is this sitting on your foundation? I'm wondering how the weight is distributed.
 
I actually added a floor joists next to every existing floor joists and added 6 piers just under the tank and the screwed 3 2x6s together and sat them straight up and down on top of the front 3 piers and then on the back 3 piers ! My friend that’s a architect said just the area my fish tank sits on can support more weight then my entire 2 story house
 
Wow what an impressive and clean build cant wait to see this when its grown in some . Nice job bud
 
Thanks for all the good comments ! I know it can’t grow fast enough for me right now !!!!! I’m use to a full grown out tank ! It’s killin me ! I’ve probably got 30 frags in there but there so small they don’t even show up when I take pics ! Haha
