ATS Office Tank 700+ Gallon

[JLowder]

Pls let me know someone told if its over 36" tall it needs to be 1"

I've read that before to some where recently.

Confirmed 3/4" as per the invoice from ReefSavvy.

I would say with euro bracing 3/4 glass would be fine but I am no expert but the guys over at Reef Savvy are lol

"Earthquake country" makes me think of putting the whole tank stand on some kind of gimbal system. I mean if you're taking it this far already... ;-)

Why not throw in a gyroscope then

Tank is expected to be installed during the Thanksgiving week. Will post pictures as it progresses.

Tank arrived last week. Need to have the stand welded up. Planning to install around middle of February. The tank is a work of art. BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Following this for sure!! Did you go with 1/4" tubular steel powder coated for the stand?

I haven't decided yet. I either will go with stainless steel and have it powder coated for double protection, or go with stainless steel, have it electropolished and then a clear coat to prevent the salt from rusting it. If I go powder coat, I will likely go blue to match the accent on the tank and MRC sumps.

Only because nobody ever like pictures of the progress...

Bordon Bespoke is the new Reef Savvy line of fully custom "over the top" tanks. In talking to Felix, he's only produced a few. His work is amazing. Truly a piece of art.

We had to build the sump in two pieces to fit in the room. The first is where the socks and UV lights are. MRC also does amazing work. Hats off to Chris Benner of Sticks and Stones for designing this system.

[Cbenner]

See ya in two weeks brother! I can't wait to install this beast!
