    Removable front panel w/doors on stand. Possible?

    all the idea's where ok but IMO- use cabinet latches- simple roller catches that are used to hold the door closed on a cabinet- the only thing is you need to use atleast 3 or 4 - top edges and bottom edges of the door- or other choice use cabinet magnets- no problem - good luck new fish
