    It's been a month since I got the ok from the wife and after a little planning and decision making the 90 gallon RR tank is in the house. Let the build thread begin.

    Thanks to everyone for all the input, I will have a lot more questions and decisions while I get the tank up and running. Next up, building the stand , still trying to decide on a height somewhere between 30" and 36"

    Make that height where you can see into the easily but also make it to where you can reach to the bottom without getting a step ladder. If you don't mind using a step ladder then builder the stand taller.

    I'm thinking 34 or 36, either way I went to Lows and bought my lumber.

    I built mine for my 40 breeder 33" tall, just to be on the safe side, so I don't have to worry about the tank rocking or tipping over
