Hmmm...

Here's my idea, a 10X12 GreenHouse, scubadude's geo-chiller/heater, and a custom plywood/glass tank.
The tank would be 'u' shaped, the left side 15" highX 3' wide. The back run would be the same. The right side would be 24" high X 3' wide.
The sides, bottom, and back of the tank would a plywood, styrofoam, plywood sandwich. The front 1/2" glass.
The tank would stand on a 2X4 or 2X6 frame.
Looking for imput.

Thank-you
Tom

Sounds cool but why would you want to make one side of the "U" taller than the other?

You would still only be able to have the water level as high as your lowest side.

Reddhaus,
The tank would be the same height all the way around.
The left and back would be like coral flats, the right side is for my sharks.
