Pictures of the new stand! Maybe? LOL!

I resized them so here goes! I made this for my 120, since the stand that was for sale that went with it looked like it couldn't hold up a fish bowl! So how did I do?

Nothing pretty here, but lots of sturdy ( I hope!)

I'd be so scared to make my own. I am lacking such craftsmen ship, but apparently you are not! Looks awesome! Are you going to make a canopy?

Nice job Jackie. My friends won't even let me use a screwdriver

I'm going to build a 10" tall matching canopy as soon as I get the time. I even picked up a fancy peice of trim to put on it.

I think your stand looks great Good luck with it and hope to hear how it works out.

It looks awesome! Here is ours. Hubby built it for the 135.

Just food for thought. When he built our hood, it's 14" tall and too small of doors. With that big of a tank I can't get my head in there to work on stuff. I'd go 15" and don't forget to make big doors.

I'm thinking about having the whole front panel hinge up so I won't have any thing in my way.By the way, did any one notice that all the seals in my tank are black? I've never seen a tank made with black glue before, I don't really like it, but it's much to late to take it back. It's full of water already!
I'll post pictures if it when it stops looking like the Okie Panokie swamp!

Our whole top hinges up so it's easy to work with the lighting, but if I got all the way up there, I'b barely be able to reach the water. I thought the black on yours was trim or something
