I’ll be upgrading from a 90 . I wanted to stick with a 4 ft long but really wanted the 24 depth and a more shallow setup then a standard 120 so I ordered an sca 100 gallon . It’s 48L x 24 W x 20 H , I also wanted a more shallow tank then what I have now so I’m pretty excited to set this up .... I’ll run through all the equipment I’ll be transferring over from the 90 but before anything it’s time to build a stand ..... took me a couple days , still not finished but I like where it’s heading ... this is my first attempt at a stand , far from perfect but I’m happy with it so far

After a much longer night of transferring everything over than I expected I finally finished .... by the time the lights came on the temp had dropped to 69 ... hopefully everything survives
