They showed me your tank as an option... I ordered a 36*30*24 LWH tank and the guy was like “it’s only $120 to do the cube!”

I was tempted.. following along! How do you like the tank?

This is my dream tank! The dimensions are on point. Cannot wait to see how your progression on this build.

I’m loving the tank so far still have a ways to go but it’s coming along nicely thus far good luck with what you purchase as well.

Got some of the plumbing in this past week coming along nicely I think.
 
Is the ball valve on the left drain for the control of water so you can make it quiet? If so, you may want to replace it with a gate valve to get finer tuning

yeah I'm going to try out the ball valve and see how it does if it doesn't perform how i like then i will step up to a gate valve most likely.
