I am starting a new build and figured this time I would try and do it on here as well as my youtube channel, JCS Reefing.
The tank I ordered is roughly 150g 72x22x22 15mm Euro braced Peninsula SC Aquariums tank. I went with this company simply because I currently run a tank by this company and have been pleased.
This tank is a peninsula style tank BUT, it will be placed up against a wall. There are reasons behind this due to the layout of the room it is in. I'm looking forward to getting this going and will start off by posting some pics of the tank stand I have made. Please follow along with this thread and also for video, subscribe and hit the notification 🛎 on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/jcsreefing

Like 40” or so. Forgot and am not home. Why?
Because it's a badass stand! Lol! I'm about to get a 5 foot tank and am hoping to find a stand that, while safely engineered, has as wide an opening as possible. I have a typical 48" stand with a center vertical brace between the doors and it's a pita. :)

LOTS of work and a struggle to get it leveled. That being said, it is up and running!

After about 2 full months up and running it is coming together and starting to clear up nicely.
