okay. after completing the 44g cube, i decided i want more. instead of trying to build an oak fascia on the current 110/44 setup, i am planning something bigger and better! i already started work on the tank that will replace both of these. it will be a 220g cube!
right now i have a 90g with dimensions 48" long and 22" high on a beautiful oak stand with a matching canopy. i will take this tank apart and use the front and back 48" length pieces, then use identical sized pieces for the sides. so the new tank will measure 48"x48"x22"! I will also use the existing oak stand, and build off of it from the back with 2x6's and cover them with the same oak panel finish, and add side entrance cabinets. will do the same for the canopy. this is very exciting. i will probably use the 44 cube for the sump (not sure yet), and use the same refugium i already built. i hope to accomplish a beautiful reef with lots of depth, and it will be viewable on 3 sides.
