Its about 24" x 12".
Well, he's running up to Prescott 3 days a week helping his dad build their house, so he really doesn't have much free time. But I'll ask.....

I hope you have better luck with your flame than I have with mine...He is a bully and picks on everyone in the tank, except for the tangs....He is even responsible for killing my brownbarred goby....Even though I keep my fish well fed, he will occasionally nip at my zoas and donut brain.....Try to get a juvi, I think mine was an adult and they may tend to be more aggressive....Good luck...

The stand looks awesome! I am in the same spot as you! My husband finished my tank on Sunday! YEAH! I am so proud of him and for myself being able to trick him into making it!
It is great to have them help, it makes them part of the hobby and in return they let you spend more $$
One little side note that we just looked into... make sure your floor joints can support the huge weight increase! We installed a few concrete blocks in the crawl space under the tank today! GOOD LUCK and we will keep checking your diary!

I did a very big clean job about a week ago, took the heaters out of the DT and put one on the sump, hoping that will be enough because the tank looks much better without the heaters in the DT. The Yellow Tang has fit right in with the rest of the tang gang and everyone is healthy and lookng good. My two anemones are also doing very well as my other corals. I did have some zoos disappear over time (my brightest green ones
I have a new fish in the QT, my Flame Angel. He's a juvi so I hope I have better luck with mine than dkw.
I'll try and post some new pics soon.
