It does tilt to 45 degreees... That's how I made the corners of the trim pair up flush (2nd pic of my last post). I went to replace the trim that was too long and got this plastic-like base board (maybe fiberglass?!). Doesn't cut very well with the miter saw, just melts into a ball at the end of the cut. Not fun stuff... I would stay away from it.

I am just about to get ready to paint it, I will post some more pictures in a little bit. Thanks for the kind words guys!

Hey guys, good news, I'm all done! Everything went as expected, got the tank filled yesterday and threw my 4 neons in to keep things going. Time for the pictures because thats why we are all here, right?

Got it painted with a gloss black, this is two buckets of water in it...



Gravel added, couple plants from my 10g and filters running...



My 10g moved underneath the 30 long...


What do you guys think? Took me a while to get it done, but I'm happy. Better than anything you could've bought for $80 at the store.

Thanks for the kind words, I was just checking out your new rock setup in your 125, looks good there!!!

I was thinking the same thing when I got it setup last night. Now to find something to cover it... I'm thinking my friend who works at a Sign shop has some extra vinyl I could use. Thanks again!
