This build is still in progress. The main stuff upstairs where the main tank is located are 99% completed. Downstairs in the filtration room, works still being done. I’am hoping to get this one cycling in two weeks. Here’s some details:

- Mfg - Crystal Dynamic
- Dimension: 72x24x24 Rimless
- 3/4" laminated Sentryglas-interlayer glass
- Reinforced bottom with perimeter brace
- Reinforced vertical seams
- Custom Modular Marine overflow
- Low iron glass
- 1” SCH 80 drain bulkhead
- 3/4" SCH 80 return bulkheads
- Starboard bottom
- Tubular steel cantilevered support

Wow! This is a definitely a dream build! I wish I could see it in person.

Just one question @robert4025, is there any way you can make that ventilation grate under the tank look nicer? I'm not sure if it's noticable when you're in the room, but from the angle of the pic, it's kinda distracting.

I hear ya. Luckily, it’s not visible at all during normal viewing.
 
I love the floating rectangle of water look. Work of art as much as a place for pets.

If it were my tank I would have been trying to visually minimize the shelf holding the tank and have no lip around the base to enhance the floating effect. But it’s not! I hope the owner and family get a lot of joy from it.
