3' x 3' Slama cube build...

[Slamajamajama]

Well, started my build and Ive started with the stand with Starfire glass on order for a 3' x 3' x 24"H, and a 20"W x 30"L sump (not sure of height yet). I needed it to slide and with a low pile carpet I came up with a low tech solution...I used 1" conduit mounted under stand with furniture sliders, slides like its on glass, but Im sure when 140g of water and 3' sq tank im sure it will dig down a bit, and as a precaution I opted to make a front "panel" to open up sump area for easy access front and back.

just a start...TBC

Thank you!
They actually stem from bulkheads in the overflow box that extends the length of the tank...you can see them somewhat in pics 2 and 3 on page 7
