I ordered the tank last week. 60x36x26 (238g), external overflow, viewable sides starphire, eurobraced w/ returns plumbed to the bracing. I decided on 3-4 vortechs for flow (no closed loop). Last night went to home depot and picked up a saw and everything to build the stand, and a hammer drill and masonry bits for drilling the rock. When are you heading to MI to build your stand?

Hey random quirky idea Ive never seen done (so new I dont even know if I like it yet). What if you didnt position the tank squarely, and instead had it at an angle (like an oblong diamond, so the overflow was at the furthest corner from you). Wouldnt know without seeing it, but it might give you a similar sense of depth as how you have it, but appear wider than 24". Just a random idea.... Looks pretty nice to me.
