Background
I live in Berlin CT. I have been waiting to get into this hobby for the last 12 years or so. I even bought a 120 gallon tank 10 years ago. I never set it up and ended up selling it. Between career changes, getting married, buying a house , kids, going back to school etc I just never found the time until now.
At the end of February I found someone on RC selling the tank I wanted.
Equipment
93 gallon 30 x 30 x 24 tank with a steel stand.
Two Vortech MP40s
Two Acan prism 600 Leds
Neptune Apex Controller
Trigger systems ruby cube 20 x 20 for a sump.
NAC 6 skimmer with an upgraded pump.
Here is a shot of the tank at the house of the prior owner.

Here is the stand once i got it home.
The firs thing I did is paint the tank.
Here is a shot with the new trigger systems sump under neath.
I will be putting this tank in my family room so it needs to look like a piece of furniture. I don't have a lot of woodworking experience and this is going to be my largest project yet. I am going to skin the steel stand with cherry.
Here it goes.
In order to make sure it would fir through the door i had to make the top ledge removable.
Here it is with the top
I will post pictures every now and then to show progress.
So how many tangs... =)
