Congrats on thinking outside the box both in terms of construction and aesthetics.

Very nice job. Are planning on leaving the cutout open? Backing it with a piece of "art" glass would look really cool and also hide the innards of the stand.

Sand-blasted glass with a fish motif, or CNC'd acrylic with a LED light behind it would look really nice.
