No the reason I went w a cube is there's no center brace to block light!

I noticed one of those at Petco. It really looks like a nice tank. I was told they have a taller tank as well. Are you going to use the glass top?

 

[Haddonisreef]

so have the side panels ready for stain and the frame for front is glued!

 

[KhensuRa]

That is looking nice. Is that a metal frame? Is so who built it? Looks like a killer weld job.
