Got a update after the last couple days. First the glass is in the 76 gallon tank. I got the paneling on the tank and the smaller tank built. Today I put a coat of drylok on the tank and cut out the trim for the stand and painted it.
ok i breed bushy nose plecos albino short fin and working on the long fin style and also short fin browns. I decided not to put the plecos under the 76 I am going to make that smaller tank into another cichlid tank. I think im going to put the plecos in a 29 gallon. For the light switches I will wire up led lights for the top and bottom tank and then run the wires to a switch so i can turn them on and off. The second switch will be used for my 2 power filters for the big tank. I will wire them up the same way I do the lights and the 3rd switch is for the other power filter that's going in the smaller tank. I might be putting blue led moon lights in the tanks also so I have a extra switch in case i do that. So today I fgot my filters in from www.bigalsonline.com today, they are 2 aquaclear 70's for the bigger tank I only paid 50 bucks with shipping. I have a emperor 400 that's going into the smaller tank. I also going some progress done with the stand. I got all of the trim on the stand and hardware. I also built a little door that opens up to get into the smaller tank on the front of the stand. Also can you tell that my cat likes the power filter box.
for thows who are following my thread I want you opinion. He is it Since I have the light colored blue back ground should I use sand or rocks. I am leaning towards black gravel but I need yours guys opinion. Also if I go sand is there any special filtration that I need for it.
