Finally my new project takes off. After the problem of my previous tank that after two years had almost completely unstuck (see here), I ordered a new tank and thanks to Alessandro Falco who lent me his aquarium to keep “on holiday” my adored fish, I managed at last to take off.
The choice of measures has been to prefer a tank that would give the idea of being large, so a very wide format, despite the height. So I confirmed the length of the front window of 130 cm, while I had to settle of a width of 60 cm, and a total height of 50 cm, which might give a more wide aquascape, this also because of the layout I have in mind and you’ll see soon.
Even the furniture was finally built to measure, and I say finally especially for those who remember of the previous one… that I wanted but that I never finished, thanks to my proverbial manual skills 
Forniture and tank have been ordered to Elos and I had to wait a month before the delivery order, I was actually very lucky, it is often necessary to wait up to 2 months from the order, for oversized items.
The bottom of tank is constructed by two layers of glass glued together in a staggered, as shown in next photo, which notes the characteristic bonding Elos.
The overflow, for obvious aesthetic reasons, has been placed on the far left, and is very tiny, measuring 15×11, 5 cm outside, inside is empty and has the two hoses for loading and unloading.
Into the overflow you can see the sump, that for now it’s empty
For now I leave you with pictures of the tank just in place, expect comments, criticisms, questions, and why not … ideas …
Good vision
Diventera’ senz’altro una vasca del “mese”….l’inizio è più che ottimo, buon lavoro
Wow, looks like a setup is coming to life.
Thanks to everybody!
Stina I wait for your pictures, let me know!
He he, nice to see your new tank, I am very happy for you!
Funny thing is that few weeks ago my new tank(130*60*50 starphire) came to Croatia, will post pictures soon at my site.
Maurizio also did my tank, but i wanted different/custom overflow
happy to see your new project realizing soon, keep up the good work!
[…] un commento The project goes on, after having presented the tank in the latest update of DaniReef … Here I present the new live rocks aquascape! I think you could want to pass the mouse over […]
Hi Dani,
What glass thickness is used for building this tank?
Does double glass botom layer one piece?
Hi Boris.
The glass thickness is 12 mm. The double bottom consist in more pieces, not only two, they have been glued together “staggered”
Hi Dani,
Thanks for a repaly.
But does both double layres from more glass pcs? Or just top layer?
Regards
Hi Boris.
Every layer consists in more pieces.
