Hahaha J-P. But one thing though. If it is an apartment you are putting this in, does your landlord know about this?...lol. Actually my crazy landlord is helping me do this. I have told her many times this is going to be well over 4000 lbs and since I am not moving for awhile, this sucker is gettin...

LOL!! nice shot! Expect the floor to bow a tad. The acrylic tank will be able to compensate but obviously you'll need to fill it first and re-measure to make sure it is level.

I have a spare 90 gallon acrylic sitting around that I was thinking of using as a sump. Since the tank is drilled in the middle, would...
