    @Cesar,

    That's a fantastic sized tank
    Is 900 high not going to be difficult to maintain? Mine is 600 and I can just about reach the bottom.

    Looking good Cesar! Are you going glass or acrylic? What's the thickness of the glass/acrylic?

    Thanks, I cant wait to see the rays in there new home. its gotten real crowded in there current tank...

    In a way I think it will be a challenge but with Aro and my Gars I needed some of the height...
    Hay If all else fails I could always get in the tank with them and clean lol

    Morning Jwh

    Well I landed up going Glass as there is no proper support for Acrylic tank builders, I had spoken to a few guys and they wanted to build the tank out of 10mm Acrylic and I honestly fell that's way to thin..
    in turn I'm getting tank built out of 19mm glass and supports will be 40mm...
