I didnt want to post any pics just yet because this is still a work in progress but this thread needs more pics. Here is my 60 cube. My dad and I made the stand. Whats left on my list figure out how I want my lighting, hung or hood, hide cords and plumbing, and build a proper sump. Dont mind the child lock on the stand I have a 14 month old who loves to splash in the sump.

I don't mind it, in fact I love it, and everyone with children should use safety devices on tank cabinets, IMO.

This shows it better:

I believe there are stream pumps hidden in the rockwork and their cords are run through the overflow and out the bottom.

Let me know when you get that tank done...I've been aching to do a similar tank since I started the hobby, but to the best of my knowledge no one in the area has one. That, and tuition is eating up all of my tank budget

Still, when your plans come to fruition I would love to come check it out.

Stupid education...*grumble grumble*

It's not his tank.

I agree with the Dudester. My tank is locked at all times. Yours looks fine. If you ever need to replace it for any reason - you could use a locking mechanism that requires a magnetic key. I use magnetic locks on the doors of my home theater cabinets. Like these...

I like the tank on the floor with the central overflow. Not so keen on his livestocking. Seems like he is throwing anything into the tank with those NPS. I cant see him target feeding them or pump feeding them in such a large tank over a long period

Still, a nice tank

Re-read his post...he talks about plans for his 500 gallon system.

People rarely read posts from start to finish LOL

It looks really cool on the floor. It's an accident waiting to happen though. Raising it by just 6 inches would have at least protected it from bumbling feet yet would have impacted the visual effect very little.

Here is salty child 79 40br. It, along with the "forest" and "bonsai" tanks, have been my inspiration. I couldn't find a build thread but, hopefully he'll see this and discuss his equipment.

Hi Everyone

Here is my modern cabinet for my diamant rimless 48" x 30" x 26" tank. The stand design is courtesy of Marlon here on the Modern Reef Aquariums thread â€“ many thanks to his permission to use the design.

This is the tank.

Here is the stand made here in Bangkok. Not 100% the same, but close. It is hard to get anything as different as this made here and have it 100% to plan I found. I also added the rectangular port hole for pipes to go through. It will face a wall and be hidden. The circular hole will have a grill custom made to cover it and have a computer fan on the other side to suck cool air in. The grill will be one of these two.

Ed Reef · 09/13/2008, 01:55 AM

Very nice Brett - mmmm you just made me want to set-up another tank LOL

What's the square hole for??

s1214215 · 09/13/2008, 02:01 AM

The rectangular hole is for the overflow and return pipes to go through. It will be against a wall so will be hardly visible.
