I really like the rockwork on the sides of the tank. Is that a diy or some product you purchased please share with us the details of your build and plans for the tank. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks saltyphish. Them 3d wall were custom made for this tank. My plans for this aquarium is to go beyond my level. I really enjoy this hobby, and specially the challenge is what I'm up for, too. So plz, if y'all have good ideas to throw in with my project. That would be awesome. Thank you again

That's going to be really impressive. Funny how all that space under the tank fills up so rapidly. I mounted all my light and wave controls in a separate cabinet so I didn't have to spend so much time under the tank. It also provides storage right where I need it. I'd mount the skimmer where you have the most access. Do you have a separate area for all the water mixing containers, etc.?

This is going to be an awesome tank, so what are your stocking plans so far?

I got 2 options for my skimmer. If planned to put in sump. It would be in front middle.

or right beside my tank and wall. That's why I left as much space I could use between tank and wall. As

I built this stand for a sit down view. That's why I built it as low as I could, to where my 75g sump have at least 8" of space from top of sump. But beside sump on both sides is where everything else goes as I plan ahead of time. Floor board is still under construction

I will be updating more as I get done. Thanks

I'm planning on sps and tangs. I will stack live rocks in the middle, to where I can put corals in middle of tank with swim through cave. Then I'll have this universal rock

on top live rocks above water, creating a diy waterfall. So I have to drill several holes where I put tubes at with a little pump running for the waterfall. Will keep you updated. Thnx
