dogmatix Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Got my tank painted, building the stand this week (sweet) But my tank was built with monster bracing, its 1200*600*600 with 2 overflows (10mm glass) but the bracing takes up one half of the tank Im going to redo it but what do you suggest as the minimum all the way around ? It would be nice if i could still gain some all be it limited acces to the overflows. Your thoughts. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pies Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Heya Ben Not exactly clean about weather you mean the strip that runs around the outside of the tank, or the centre 'cross' brace? If you mean the strip that runs around the out side I am using 50mm and plan on using 50mm for my 'big' tank. If you mean the centre brace, on a tank only 1200 long, 600 high maybee you won't need one? I don't use one on my 1000x650Hx400W. If you do, use a single narrow one, don't want to get it in the way of your lighting. Its hard to clean too. Good luck Pies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmatix Posted May 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Sorry about that. Yeah i want to go open top so that the hallides dont have to through any glass, i spose 50mm strip in the middle wont be too bad tho. So you think 50 mm all around the tanks enough ? Thx Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
