    zjpeter, my mom was eyeballing a 125 long at the LFS today. It would probably take up that whole wall, or leave about 6 inches on each side. So...the possibilities are endless :D

    And Jake, that was our "frag tank". But the GSP frag isn't exactly a frag anymore...

    sweet tank it has come a long ways. speaking of a bigger tank being in wall just built a 75 to replace my 55 in wall. its been holding water for two weeks now. i built it out of plywood. used 1/4 inch glass on front but instead of painting with epoxy which can get pricey just had my glass shop cut 1/8 inch glass to line the other walls and bottom so you still get the mirror images off the side. best thing was the thin glass cost less than 30 dollars where expoxy cost 75 to 100. never have to worry about recoating the glass like you would the paint. so it can be done fairly inexpensive.

    Don't worry she'll never find my diary. The pink fluffy cover of the book hides that it's mine...and I got it at Toy R Us, one of those voice password things. She'll never be able to break the plastic latch to get in! Muahahaha!

    ...*ahem*...sorry you had to see that.

    :D
