Default New See-thru-wall tank set up

Hi guys just sharing some pics of my new tank set up from start to finish and the filtration used. Tank size is 50x26x30" with 45" high cabinet and 15" high top hood with doors. Hope u guys enjoy...

This is actually a bar top from my kitchen to dining room.


So converted the space to put this...


Gerald and guys fitting in the side boxes


Next is the back of the tank which is in the kitchen. i asked for a different color box up to match my kitchen..

Couldnt complete everything in a day so filled up the water to start cycling first



the following week, the back oyama was peeled off to reveal the see-thru look and rest of the job was also completed



Filtration used, Eheim 2260 filled with bio medias only with 1260 pump..


Outlet of 2260 connected to a 4ft OHF for mechanical filtration

Nice set-up. Congrats. What fish going to keep? Where, can't see your filtration system le. How are you going to clean/wipe the internal? Using magnet cleaner?
