by looking at the framing and construction of the front viewing wall, i wanted to make a suggestion....I would be sure to leave a way for you to get access to the tank from the front. I am currently contemplating cutting about 12" of wall from above the tank and having some cabinet style doors hung to have front access...It will be a pain in the ... to clean the and maintain the front viewing panel without it. Nice progress!!

The stand for the tank is about a foot and a half bigger on thr the back so I can stand on the back of tank hopefully that will help a little

The dimensions on my tank are 72x30x24 (similar to yours) I have a way of standing behind my tank as well just know that when there is rock and corals in the tank it will be somewhat difficult to get around. I just wanted to share my experience with you and your in the prime stages of the build to avoid that scenario. Just my .02 though....

Nice... Looks amazing and can't wait to see it with the lights on. Now it is time to put some LR, Coral and Fish in that bad-boy! Go slow my friend. Also, Careful putting the liverock in and/or leaning against the glass when you are standing up there on the stand. I cracked a tank once when i dropped a piece of live rock that slipped about halfway down and got 110 gallons of saltwater on the floor... Set-up that 40 as a quarantine tank for sure. Would love to see a pick of the filtration system. Also, looks like you have bunch of helpers come waterchange time... LOL...

Nice tank and nice installation. On the first picture you can't judge the size. The second picture with the kids in let's you see the size of the tank. It sure looks good.
