Just picked this monster up. 96×24×30 acrylic setup. Will be refinishing the stand, sanding and polishing the tank. Also will be drilling the tank and getting a custom overflow box made. Inhabitants will be a variety of large geophagus, large school of corys (100+), and a large school of lemon tetras (100+) wish I could get my hands on a fresh water ray. :(

Update. Got all wood materials to reinforce the stand. The front will consist of one large 8ft panel held with magnets, will be fully removable to work on filtration. Trim will go all the around and outline 3 door on the panel. Both sides of the stand will also be removable. Plan on doing all white, very clean look.

Pine wood panel
Look similar to this but with 1 panelLast edited by agamberutti; 06-21-2015, 09:35 PM.

You are my hero man. Sanding a tank that size is a big job. Hang in there. Once it's filled with water, it will be very rewarding.010G Long fin BN grow-out

Update on progress. A week into redoing the entire stand I am nearly done. Had a good friend come out to help me make this stand into something special. Some pics along the way.
Was attacked by tiger mesquitos while working on the stand at night. Aparently allergic to them, what do you think?
Painting under way
Almost finished.
Everything sanded. Finishing the buffing g.
