fin350 Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 hi, i have a 6ft tank in the wall.. flush with kitchen wall but tank is in the study .... just allow urself plenty of height with the cut out on the garage side to be able to reach the bottom of the tank on the front side if u get wat i mean ( just remember u loose 4-5inches due to wall thikness ) mine is 2ft high and because at the time i didnt think i just wanted to get it in i made the frame work enough for tank to fit in and now when i need to do something at the front of the tank i can just reach ...... apart from that they look awsome .. ill try and get some pic up later ..

fin350 Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 IMO .. id maybe use some sought of backing that can be removed instead of painting it purely to make maintenance a little easy .. ie; see wat ur doing ... Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
