Tbelt's 180 gallon build

LOL. Get a bean bag chair if they are around still. Then just toss it in a corner when not in use.

 

Great minds think alike. However with 2 dogs sleeping in it during the day it did not work out. One small tear and "beans" all over the place. That won't happen again. Still have a couch and love seay so the floor is only a last resort LOL

 

what omg i love this you hvae a set that looks great just to sit down and view your tank. i love your stand. and i love how your tank looks. but can we get more pics of what is in your tank. i can't wait to see.

 

wow this tank looks great i love how you did everything your self.
did you drill your holes for the tank to.?

 

No it was pre drilled. I only had to replace the overflow walls because they were so nasty. Thanks for the kind words. I will get some pics up with all the stuff in the tank soon. Probably the weekend.

 

i just read the etire thread this build is very cool i am curious to know what exactly it was you used to paint the stand that gave it that cool texture

 

nice looking tank. congrats.

 

I got it at Home depot. It comes in a sparay can. It is actually called "textured" paint. The caps show you exactly how it will work.

 

Just wanted to show some updated phtos of the tank. Let me know what you think and thanks for looking. The first is the torch coral 6 weeks ago. The second is what it looks like today





This is the hammer 6 weeks ago and then today





Alien eye a year ago and then today





one of my first corals a year and half ago and today





The tank itself when I first got it up and running about 9 months ago and the tank today







Will post some more later. Thanks again for looking

 

Got a pic of my cleaner shrimp doing his thing. Usually when I get close to the tank during a cleaning the fish swims away. Just thought I would share. You can see the other fish waiting in line.
