Just thought I would share my build here.
Several weeks ago I placed and order with miracles out of Canada. Well the tank is done and is shipping out tomorrow. The tank has a foot print of 48x24 and is 18 in tall. Measures out to 90 gallons. So it just has a larger footprint than a typical 90 gallon but just not as tall. It is rimless and will have a center overflow. Keeping the ATI 6x39 w Sunpower for a light fixture. Also using my RKE to run the whole thing. Also using a Eheim 1260 as a return pump.

I had a buddy of mine build the stand and I went to pick it up today. He was still staining the doors but otherwise its good to go. Snapped a couple pics to share. Way more to come as the week goes on and if all goes well I am hoping to have it up and running Sunday afternoon.

Very nice stand. Looking forward to seeing it with the doors and tank!
 
should have them by the end of the week. So now I can work on the bottom.
 
Oh this is going to be a great build!
 
Thanks Lorna, And everyone else. After all the mistakes I have made I am hoping I have learned a thing or two. I am thinking about lining the inside of the stand with some shower type board. we will see what the local lowes has.
 
I hope i like it. IT will be last one for a while. Just found out I am going to be a daddy again.
