I've been reading, just haven't had any time to post with my hectic work schedule. Being jobless really helps with catching up though lol.

- Thread starter necrocanis
- Start date
Welcome back necro. we all missed you. glad to hear from you also. I wish you the best of luck in School and in the job hunting. I'm glad this thread is back alive and I know one day you will be back keeping the monsters with us. ttyl
This might look a lil familiar! I took the design from some other MFKr! Hope he doesn't mind! I have it set in my mind to start construction on this lil baby! Should be around 200 gals total based on the internal dimensions. The last 1' of this will be the internal sump. Let me hear everyone chime in on this! The dimensions are 66"x30"x30" external. internal for the viewing portion will be 52.5"x28.5"x28.5". The internal sump will be around 12"x28.5"x28.5". These are not exact measurements, but they will have to do for now. Lil rusty on my internal math skills. Stocking will include............drumroll................................................................................

Yay! lol. Think it's time I rejoined the fishkeeping community, and 200 gals sounds like a nice stand alone tank. This will actually be the largest tank I've ever had inside a house. My other tanks were always either outside or in a garage. Stand to come later. Plan on having center cabinets for storage, and a shelf on each side. Might not be a very tall stand as the sump will be side by side to the tank. Maybe 2' or 2.5' tall max.

not sure I'm gonna do this, but it's fun to plan.
great to see you dreaming of a build. that tank looks very familiar. I am watching his thread also. well I wish you the best on it I will be watching
Great, welcome back Necro. I still have faith in seeing my name on a HUGE monster tank/pond built by you! Stay strong, and don't worry, the fish and ply wood will always be there.
Cheers,
Ken.
