Looks like a fun project! I dont know if anyones asked this but why cant you just make a regular tank and build the drop off out of live rock inside the tank? said:That's what I thought too

Looks like a fun project! I dont know if anyones asked this but why cant you just make a regular tank and build the drop off out of live rock inside the tank? said:Because then you lose the space below the shallow area of the tank (if you look at the earlier sketchup renderings of the frame you'll see what I'm talking about). Currently I have it set up so my dosers, controller, and some storage area will be there, as well as a cutout for a taller skimmer if I ever choose to get one taller than 35" (the height of the stand).
Plus, because, well, I want to. [smilie=lol.gif]
So said:I have two 20 amp circuits for my tank and have not had any problems as of yet. Three will be awesome!
Also, you will be glad that you are not going with the laminate. We have it in our game room which is where our tank is and are about to have to tear down the tank so that we can to take it out since it is warping. We are going to go back with stained concrete. Did you look at real wood floor? I'm thinking about putting it in another room where we are going to put up a 28 gallon nano but am worried about the water destroying it but not sure if it will?
