Zack’s Thicc 150g

[Zack K]

So... yea, this is exciting! Received a call from a buddy that had a 150 that he needed gone ASAP. Moral of the story, it’s here, and not what I expected.

Instead of a normal 150g from aqueon (like 90% of 150’s) it appears to be a special order 150. For some ungodly reason he wanted 5/8” glass for a FW 150. So this thing weighs ALOT.

This is going to be a slow build thread to start off. With graduation and my 18th birthday right around the corner I have some big choices to make in life. Once I find a place close to work I will have this thing wet. In the mean time, I will build the stand and Canopy, as well as grab some of the equipment. I heard Red Sea just released their new product line. View attachment 740790
Dimensions are 72” long 18” from to back and 28” tall.

5/8” glass with a solid wood trim.

Darn, started the party without me! I can stand out in Pink I guess[emoji57]. Although this tank is considered “big” it’s not big enough for me. This is just a temporary tank from the time I move out to the time I buy a house.
