Starting My 90 Bowfront

Carpet but I also noticed when I pushed down on the high side it leveled. So one I get the sand and a little watter in it I'll push on the corners of the stand that are a little higher.

Yea I've seen them on YouTube and thought about it but I love Eheim haha. I'll end up prolly getting a 2217 to compliment my current filter.

Oh theres no water or substrate in it yet? Fill it. Carpet self levels well.

I have to say im seriously considering building one of these. And depending on stock one eheim will not be enough. I try to run at least 2-3 filter for a hopeful 8-10 times filtration of the aquarium size.

All depends on what he's going to put in there. But yeah, overfiltration is always good

You could do the DIY wet/dry + the Eheim!

Damn almost to the stage of putting sand in. My OCD has definitely got the best of me... All this fancy gadgetry I never had I have to route the lines. Putting air lines in now. Haven't really figured out which way I am going as far as fish yet. I have an Eheim rated for 160 and I have a 90 gal, so it should work pretty good.

Ok so today I'm going to do a little tweaking and tank will be done until fish are added. It's amazing how a 90 gal footprint gets so small when you add rock and plants. I hate how tall the actual tank is too because I can't reach the bottom very well to place stuff the way I want. I'll put some pics up later from laptop before I start moving stuff around. Just not happy with the look...

well here are a few pics after initial setup. I will get some current pics up soon. Made a few changes since the initial setup. Keep in mind the water is cloudy from the sand kicking up from setting it up.
