I’m dealing with a new Sicce Syncra DC pump that’s way too loud and a Shadow overflow box that had the drips and didn’t want to seal, but it’s up and running with fresh water. If you can, I highly recommend starting your tank for the first time, away from the wall, so you can get behind it. Makes dealing with any issues (like the overflow box) so much easier.

Beautiful stand! If you don't mind me asking, how high is the stand? Looks like you have alot of room under there!

Nice! I'm in the process of building one for my sca 120 and I went with 34" height. More room in the stand and a better viewing height as well!

Had some requests for pics under the stand. The doors have soft close hinges that open 105°
