So I am feeling a bit like this
I need to get started on so many things I can't get any where. So I need some help.
Dimensions for a stand - I will be building this out of 2x4s and then will put a skin on it to make it look nice. This is a tall tank so I want to keep the stand as short as possible. However, I don't want the sump area to be a PITA because I didn't leave enough room. The sump I am planning to use is 24W x 14T x 12D. I have a RemoraC Skimmer that is going to hang on the side as well so I figure I need about 24" of height inside the cabinet. This would put my overall height around 28". Putting the top of the tank at 52", which is actually about the height of my armpit. Suggestions?
Here are some pics of the new equipment:
And the old equipment that I didn't get around to selling off:
Does anyone recognize this skimmer? What do I need to make it work?
