so here it is. finally built a stand for it last night. it only took about an hour. tank dimensions are 36x20x10, rimless. its about 32gal. i'll be using a 20gal tank that was given to me yesterday as a sump. so far, the only thing i've actually paid for is wood which cost me about $20. both tanks were given to me by people who thought they were "garbage" frag tank was dirty, after a good cleaning, it looks new. 20gal had a cracked side glass, but the guy had a replacement glass which im just siliconing on and that should hold. I'll be using this for SPS. soon i'll be ordering a 250w mh and some t5's for actinics. here are the pics.
