Coolest tank I ever saw. . . by nightflameblue (2.00 / 0) #22 Mon Mar 31, 2008 at 09:40:47 AM EST

was a 4' square bottom that was two foot tall. You could walk all the way around the outside of it, so you were never more than two feet from the center. The overflow was built into the middle of the tank, and the return jets kept all water flowing in the same direction making a gentle but noticeable flow around the tank. It was set up as an amazonian biotope.

If you have a big enough room, stick the tank in the center. Easy access on all sides. If not, make heavy-duty supports above you can lay on. I've seen it done both ways, but absolutely fell in love with the center-of-room tank.

you'd be more than 2 feet from center if you stood at the corner...and i don't know why that's the first thing i thought of.

i like the 40 i have now, and want another like it, only on a larger scale. i have sword plants aplenty in there, and i want another breeding pair of angels.

to piece together the geometry, but top corner to bottom inside middle would be the furthest you'd have to reach. Meh. Not that I'll ever have the room for that anyway.
