Thank you for growing my frags into colonies. Can’t have any tiny nubs in here!

Not sure when IM started producing aluminum stands but it feels like an entirely different company as compared to when they launched, which is great.

Quick assembly.
Sturdy.
Clean look.
Negative: Watch out for metal splinters/shards. They could have cleaned things up just a bit post-cut and prior to packing. Have a vacuum nearby to lower the chances of a painful assembly.

Partial unboxing day - Zipping right along!

• First Impression: Wow, these dimensions are bigger in person. How will I reach the back? I won’t.
• Silicone work looks solid - Clean, neat.
• Overall good packaging. They could have put some padding around the pump and plumbing. It was left to slide around inside the glass box.

I am a fan of the 8020 stands. They are the future. I’m surprised other companies don’t use them more. They are so modular

No MDF stands!
That looks like lots of fun!
Along for the ride...

Mdf stands should be extinct. Profitability and margins keep them around.

Crate removed, and voila! A box!

 

[iCon]

Tricksy! It’s a bottomless box, so more of an uncovering than an unboxing!

Annnnnd, we have a tank on a stand!
Less than ideal placement but at least there’s a tank. The stand felt sturdy throughout and the suction cups made it possible.

Updated the tank thread since it’s become clear to me that any and all fishy business will occur between 10p-1a.

Onto plumbing and setting up the sump!

I love the dimensions of the tank! Lots of aquascaping potential!
