DIY Tank Ideas....
First... let me say thanks for all the help so far guys in my threads, this place has been a great source of information.
Here is my situation. I am building a Tank stand for my 75 gallon reef tank, the frame itself is not a problem. I plan on adding a access door on one side (for top off water) and double doors in the front, for easy access to the sump tank, skimmer, etc. On the back of the door, I am adding wire basket shelves, to store my chems, misc gear. What I am looking for is ideas to make this stand unique, and make it look real nice. Please give me whatever ideas you have, or links to threads with them. As I have spent way too much time looking on my own. Thanks in advance, you guys are the best. |

No doors, instead make completely removable front and side panels. Ideally, the panels would be made of your favorite hardwood and attached with magnets.
Use a marble slab for the top. |
