Anyone have a 6' long x 4' wide x 3' tall tank? Glass or acrylic? Would you do that size again or maybe an 8x4x3 or maybe 30 inches tall? Can you service the middle without a headache? Pics? I'm just dreaming and scheming at the moment- don't tell the Mrs.

No sure of who or the exact size, but someone on here had a similar size with euro-bracing. He would crawl ontop of it to do any work in the middle of the tank.

Envision built me a 6' x 4' x 27"H acrylic...1" thick all around with 6" eurobracing and 2 x 6" cross braces.

I routinely place a piece of plywood across the braces and crawl around on top of the tank for maintenance. Had I known this would be possible, I would probably have made the tank 6' x 6'.

Greenwich Aquaria has a 6x4x3 show tank that is amazing. Search around and you will find it. I can't comment on ease of maintenance, but it looks awesome!
