Looks amazing. I would love to have a tank that size, although i am basing my own 1500 gallon tank off your old tanks design. So i have to thank you for that.

Great updates! I like the way you mounted the back wall to the concrete. Do you have a real job?????? Who has this kind of time.....
You make the time. 8 hrs of work + 6 hours of sleep still leaves you 10 hours. If you don't do any thing else at all...

I like the brackets. Did you end up putting a moisture barrier between the concrete and the back wall?

Thanks for all the comments..

If I forget to respond to something just ask again..

No vapor barrier. We left a 2" air gap between tank and wall. Will be running a dehumidfier anyways and a fan to keep that area from building up any moisture.

Different basement in a new house.

First 3 days I was on vacation so I had a nice head start on the bulk of the bulding. :)

awesome, I see you left plenty of working room above the tank this time, should make it easier to maintain. It would be cool if you could post up things you learned from the last built and are thus not going to do again or are revising on this one. I still plan on doing a larger setup again once I get back on my financial feet and advice like that is priceless.
