Hi all, just wanted to see what you guys think of my new setup. I included a pic of my DIY sump and refugium (which has been up for over a year) as well. I had a professional weld the stand and then got it powder coated black. I found the panels at Lowes and attached powerful round magnets to the back and they are holding on great! I still have lots to do, but I’m in Heaven so far.

What are the dimensions of your acrylic tank?
 
I know there is a lot of hate for acrylic tanks as they scratch easier, but man are they a ton lighter. I once had a 240 could move it with one other guy. loved it for that. if it was glass it would have taken 4-6 guys.

let us know how it goes I have thought about getting another one someday.

so you "skined" your stand with doors from homedepo? I thought of the same many times. it's cool they matched your stand.
should us more pls. :)
