Well after selling my son tank he was not a happy kid. After week and month going to a LFS every weekend we had it. We decided to go ahead and replace it w/ a bigger one so he and the family could enjoy. In the meantime I start building the stand and sump for his new tank. I called Minh(BAA) to help us out on the tank. I took awhile but the tank is finally here. Man the tank is a beast 3/4" glass w/o a center brace. Here some picture of the build @ http://photobucket.com/andrew7b
Thanks Minh(BAA)

GAW,
The tank is 60x30x25 w/o a center brace. The depth is awesome. Light is a Sfiligoi 2-250hqi/ 4-54w T5/ 6 LED.

hey andrew, that speaker above and to the left of the tank might get some rust on it...or at the very least a lot of evaporation heading its way. might want to relocate it.
