I have had to bump this project up in the queue of many that I have to do. I need to get my remaining marine fish out of the 60 gallon tank that is normally for my pond fish to over winter in. I put them in it when I shut down the 75 I had and moved some fish to my new reef tank. The remaining fish are the non reef compatible ones that I still wanted to keep.
But now with winter rapidly bearing down, I'll need to get the pond shut down and those fish indoord again. So even though I have much to do to finish the woodwork on the reef tank and the rest of the basement, this needed to be done first.
All the wood was leftover materials I had on hand, so all i had to buy was the hardware. I really like Arts and Crafts/Mission styl furniture, so I wanted to try an aquarium stand in that style. I am quite satisfied with the results. I still have to set up all the hardware and drill holes for the plumbing, ventilation etc. after that's done I will give it some finish, and into the living room with it. Hopefully ahead of the freezeup.
