Anyone ever used a standard Petco 75 and turned it into a peninsula? If so post up some pics and share how you liked it. I’m thinking of ditching my 60 cube and going this route instead. Really love the 4’ peninsulas but don’t want to spend $3k for a water box so think
I may just make my own! The standard 75 in my opinion is a great tank, and can be bought brand new for $130 bucks if caught on the 50% off deal. Heck even if you have a standard 75 that’s not a peninsula post it up, would love to see how they look set up

This is my 75g tank
I’m going through a little bit of rearranging to make room for some new things coming this week
