Hi fish driends!
I wanted to add Craigs List to the resources because I though "Hey, if
I'm gonna build/splatter paint a stand and hood I may as well go real
big... Here is the report:
Got a 72x18x24 (needs work but does not leak-he said) tank, he was
pretty sure it is a 135 gal, yes? Loaded the tank into the house, it
will soon be cleaned, bottom frame re-installed, Top frame possibly
reinstalled, insides all clened and relsealed (is that done same way as
a smaller tank?), three cabinet stand, and modest hood.
In a month or so I plan to add my favorite fishies (clown loaches) into
it so I'll keep y'all posted with stand and hood up first. Color pics
comming soon too...

The standard 90 gallon tank is 48x18x24". That is a rather deep tank. If
you want to have a well planted aquarium you will have to take that in to
consideration. The deeper the tank the more light you will have to put into
it.
If I'm more into plastic plants for easy maintenance and very low plant
death rate. Also, while I was under the "cabon" brain wash I tried live
plants a few times and the plants quickly perished... And how the heck
do you vacuum gravel with those weeds in there?
Thanks, Karl.
NOTE: This is my first big tank so any advise/experiences is welcome
and would be appreciated! Thanks again...
