Picked up a 90 gallon AGA reef ready tank and stand off Craigslist. My initial plans for this tank include building a custom stand and re-plumbing the internal overflow on the tank with a Herbie style draining into a Trigger Systems Emerald 34 sump. Flow in the tank will be provided by one or two MP40's. Lighting will be LED, right now leaning towards Radions. All other equipment is up in the air right now. So far I've started the new stand and have ordered the sump.
Frame for stand was built using 2x4's for bottom frame and supports, and 2x6's for the top frame. I used the 2x6's so I could keep the front of the stand open without the need for a center brace. It is wrapped in 1/4" sanded pine plywood which will be painted black. I designed the stand to have cabinets on each side, one for electronics and the other for misc things.
Like always, I appreciate any feedback/suggestions.
