Love to see you breath life back into this beast of a tank! Tagging along. When I first sold the tank I went through 3 jugs of vinegar to clean up all the coralline..Lol Did you ever get the stand?

It is nice to see that this tank / stand has found it's way into someone's hands that will take care of it. Hard to believe the stand was already beat up. It was such a great build to start off with and actually sold me on Reef Savvy tanks. Even got the idea for the feed store rubber mat under my tank from Andy's build, among other things. Looking good. I am envious that you got such a nice Reef Savvy tank without the wait time though.
So thinking of different options to mount all my equipment and controllers.
Thinking of extending the stand about 4 inches and having everything located at the end of the stand. Behind ether a wood door/panel or smoked glass.
Below is a picture with a 2x4 to try and gauge how deep I want it. Unfortunately I got a bid ahead of my self and already skinned the front and back. But may need to remove that if I extend the stand a few inches so the skin is one clean panel and not just extended with another piece. Struggling a bit to figure out how to manage the inside of the panel in the stand and organize wires. Need to brainstorm a bit more to figure something out .
Great build....that stand is solid,must weigh a nice amount...Just take into consideration on the extension for your controllers and such that when you mount the apex power bar and then plug all the heavy gauge cords into the power bar that they stick out a decent amount...I made that mistake because some plugs are thicker than others and not all have a flat plug so when I went to put a plexiglass cover on it I had to extend it out further to almost about 5 inches deep depending on how u plan to slide the door on
Won’t be home for another week or so with the holidays but will post when I get home. A lot of pics on page 1!
