    Diy stand 125

    Well here's what I got so far. Tried a green stain that didn't work out so well so the boss asked me to paint it. Doors are in the shop getting painted now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New tank leveling question.

    Thanks for the replies. I was very interested in the glass cages idea as I didn't want a tank that was too tall and I liked the Idea of having starphire glass as well, Marineland had a 20% off Sale on all their tanks a couple weeks ago so I got a 125 and a 40 long for $550, couldn't pass that...

    New tank leveling question.

    Just got my 125 from the LFS and the banding around the bottom has a gap on just front corners, should I be worried about that?

    Need Return Line Advice

    Marineland 125 gallon true dimensions question

    Diy stand 125

    Very cool. Looks nice. All the big box stores carry birch plywood, I prefer the look of maple but it can easily fetch twice the price of birch, when you're talking about 3/4" that can get expensive quick, for me this will the main focal point of our family room so it's worth the added cost...

    Diy stand 125

    Thanks. It's birch plywood. The bottom part isn't done yet. I have the bottom braced for the 40 gallon sump but the plywood isn't on yet. Definitely doing some shelves on the right side. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
