120RR build...
Well everyone it has been some time since I have posted. So I thought I would share my build so far. The tank is a 120RR AGA. I custom built the stand and canopy. Here are a few shots so far.
Stand Build.

Wet Room. It is still not finished but here are some shots. The sump is an acyrlic 75 with 4 baffels.

Here is the canopy as of 30 min ago. I ran out of finishing nails. The canopy will hold 8 T-5's it is an open top for cooling and will flip open for maintenance.

That's quite an elaborate setup. You've put a lot of time and thought into it. Very nice job on the stand, too. Looks great!

Looks great! One question, is the sump running all the way to the top or is that a wet test? If its running with the water line at the top, ou will have a flood if you lose poswer and the 120 siphons off the top onch or two.
Great wood working, clasy looking stand.

The doors were made from 3/4" Sandply. I cut them then used Euro hinges to hang them.

That was a wet test. The baffels are tall but it has enough room for power outages. Thank you on the stand. The canopy will match the stand. It was all built with Jig saws and Skill saws. No table swas here. LOL.
