Just finished my cabinet and waiting on my tank to be delivered hopefully this week, built locally with 1 inch acrylic 96 x 36 x 36. Two drains two returns, no idea about stocking or controllers or lighting yet I just wanted to share this with my old reefers back in the Hudson Valley

PS my 95 wave doing well

Congrats on that 8 foot tank. Stand looks very nice. I can already visualize the big colorful fish, swimming back and forth. Please post pics, when the tank arrives.

Hey, I remember getting a few of your corals and clown fish, what a great group we had back then. Down here there’s an strong local group and I met some people who have unbelievable tanks . Literally this one guy has world-class tank , giant colonies of everything LOL
hopefully my tank arrives this weekend , I’ve been in touch with a few people who stack rock with acrylic rods etc. the tank is going to be 3 feet tall hopefully I can get the look I want ,
