I thought I would my new build since i didnt really document my 180 build. Its a acrylic 60 gallon cube, i got it with tank, stand, and sump, so the hard work is pretty much done. im not really sure how far its gonna go but for now its gonna be my wifes frog fish tank and pretty much whatever she wants in there. I will need a return pump though but not real sure what to get yet, but was leaning towards a mag 7. As far as lighting goes, that still up in the air depending on what else goes in the tank. Hope you like it.

Dont mind the garage, its a mess. Ive been the inside of the stand with kilz and should be restaining the stand as soon aas i buy some more stain, not sure of what color though. Te tank looks like it is scratched alot but it is swirl marks from wiping it down after rinsing it down.

Not sure yet,seen a few different kinds at a few lfsbut haven't made up our mind yet. I'm sure there will probably be a pair of clowns too.

Well the paint is dry and the sump is clean. Also got the plumbing done, now to pick and find a return pump. Still trying to figure out what to do about lighting though.

Looking good, is there going to be a land section for the frogs?
