Went out and got that 110gallon i've been bugging everyone about($350). So far it's filled up about 2/3 and the floor seems to be doing fine. Too bad my Sh1tty python plastic parts are stripped and it's a pain to use now...
He also threw in some sort of hang from ceiling lighting that has 4x40w which will do me for now until i get everything set up in the next few weeks. I'm off to the fish store tomorrow to get some fluorite substrate. How many bags do i need to make about 4inches of substrate?

You can order the replacement brass fitting for the faucet connection.... Good luck with the 110 gallon...

Wow! Congrats on the new tank. That's very exciting!!!
I too love the piece of wood you have under the tank. I'm sure it'll look great in the tank!! I have no clue about the substrate, but I'm sure somebody will come and help ya out.

I have no clue how the wood fits in the tank the proper way. I spent about 20min trying to position it right and i don't think it's going to fit the way i want it to but I will eventually get it to fit.
I'm going to order some Seachem Fluorite today online. The stores had the stuff i put in my 30gal and it's kind of a yellow/red ugly color and only 3 bags. I think i'll go black. Just need to know how many bags to get but i saw somewhere there was a substrate calculator on some website....
Just hooked up the power head and filter and the powerhead is NICE.
I'll post another picture tonight when the wood is in. Won't be any substrate or anything like that for a week or so.

Edit. Just picked up 6 bags of this and a cheap substrate heater made for a 40-60 gallon tank(160watt).
I figured since mine is basically just a 75gal but taller i wouldnt need need the big one(400w)
