Update: In-Wall Back
Update: In-Wall Back
Here is the view of the stand holding the 29 behind the finished wall. I need to brace the bottom shelf, which will hold a 10 gal tank. Then, wrap the whole thing in 1/4" plywood so it looks pretty - even though the rest of the room is unfinished :)

I like that the 29" is only 30.25" wide - so it fits perfectly between studs (32") My wife isnt crazy about this yet ... she doesnt like that its not centered on the wall - but the only way for me to do that would have been to put the tank in the laundry room :) She'll warm up to it.

good job Frank, wondering when you'll go for the 3 tank, or the bigger one?:)

At the moment, getting another tank would probably lead to me getting a new wife, but we will re-evaluate that position on a quarterly basis :)

exactly bro! That how it works.
Before I gave ring second time, I told my girl all conditions.
My son, my Supra, my tanks:)

lol Alex! My wife is the greatest, couldn't replace her in a million tries, so I should probably take care of other home improvement projects before I add more tanks :)

Nice back side Frank. Not like what I pictured, which is probably a good thing, lol.

Thanks Karrie - trying to make it nice, and keep it simple for maintenance. LOL Bip, what were you picturing?
