Dang Walt, this is an amazing tank! Very well thought out, and quite an impressive list of equipment. I can't wait to see it in action. Love the deminsions man.

Agreed .
I hope he doesn't mind me sharing this ...

I talk to Walt as least 3 times a week . He called me this morning , saying he was going to be very busy today .
Trying to finish building and sanding the stand . Working on the template for drilling the tank . Dry equipment placement and what not .

Walt is one big miracle . He is a DAV and was in a coma for almost 3 weeks . I hope he responds to his thread soon but some of the meds he is on really tire him out .
My Nana advised me when I grew up I would have only enough friends to count on my two hands . I consider Walter one of them .

The template that came with the X Aqua X in-out is in metric .

So a mock up with wood is going to be the template .

Now we can get a good feel of what it would look like on glass .

The stand is sanded down and here are some more pic's of it . A little out of order but worth sharing . 1 x 4's were used . Gives it a clean look .
