Hi all, Now that the dimensions of the tank and all the kit needed to go with it is decided on, I thought I should get cracking on the stand.
I want it to be as low as I can get away with so I can be eye level with the tank when I'm chilling on the sofa :)
Am planning building it from 3x3 timber and then screwing to the wall.
The tank will be a 90x45x45 so will make the stand 1cm extra front and sides.
Plan on using marine ply as the top.
I will be using a JBL Cristalprofi e1501 Greenline External Filter.
Dimensions given are 24 x 38.5 x 48 cm. How much more height should I factor in for when the pipes and inline heater are fitted?
Same question for the Co2, with a Professional Aquarium CO2 Dual Stage Regulator and 12V DC, attached to a 2K fire extinguisher. What height would this be if anyone has this Co2 setup?
Cheers :)
Edit, just got some info from lain on the forum regarding the Co2 system height. Looks like ill be going with 60cm height.
